Pros

Some coworkers are decent people. The work environment is so overwhelmingly toxic that floor level workers actually develop trauma bonds with one another.

Cons

Massive worker dissatisfaction. High turnover rates. Management is both ineffective and abusive. Upper management routinely retaliates against victims if they complain about the myriad of abuses that employees suffer...even though they herald their non-retaliation policy. Management is erratic and inattentive. Workers toil in unbearable heat without relief. Staffing shortages compounded by a hiring process that moves slower than a geological age, make it impossible to maintain any adequate safety or quality standards. Management is more concerned with hiding unsanitary manufacturing conditions from customers than they are with cleaning. Documentation is routinely falsified. Plant level advancement is frequently dependent upon nepotism and Quid Pro Quo relations. Upper management positions aren't rewarded based on merit...they're based on a crooked, oily favors system, that would make a 1930s Chicago politician blush.

Pros

Great 2nd Pillar contribution (among the best in the industry), good work-life balance, nice new offices and decent work flexibility / work benefits (e.g. health insurance). The company is expanding its Swiss office since a few years, centralizing the top level management of Europe in Switzerland. For the first time they are seriously investing outside of the USA and it actually feels like a thriving company with a clear, new strategy.

Cons

Do not expect a fast "automatic" career. ADM is a slow growth, dividend paying giant. In this environment you will need to work a lot of politics to make career. If you want to be promoted with seniority, go work at Amazon. Also, salary needs to be negotiated because HR will always try to low-ball you at the beginning. But they do have the money and try to attract talents, so you can negotiate.
