Pros

-Really enjoyed the Research environment & people [not so much Corporate or GTECH] -I think the job freeze has subsided, so a lot of opportunities to transfer within the company & around the U.S/world are probably possible again -I'm guessing its a stable company again now that the massive hacks have been done

Cons

-A lot of red tape in my department before people could be helped; often told people they had to go to person "X" and then be transferred to me before I could help them. --made me feel incredibly uncomfortable since I knew I could help, I just got tired of having my wrist slapped. -Pretty much any criticism you'd have about a big corporation. I doubt ADM is any worse than most Fortune 500 companies

Pros

Lots of great people in this company. Overall a great place to work as long as you're in the right department. If you're considering a position in the QC Lab, you'd be better off pumping septic systems with a drinking straw than tolerating the broomstick riding manager.

Cons

People not qualified being put in supervisory positions. Those people then treat you like trash and lie to cover their own behinds. Obviously fat and lazy is rewarded and if you don't kiss fat and lazy's ass, you're not "ADM Material".

Pros

Decent pay and benefits, co-workers and staff people generally easy to work with

Cons

Terrible review process, most management is unqualified, expectations unrealistic, 70 -80 hour workweeks. I worked under a manager for 20 years that rarely worked a full week and treated employees terribly, yet he kept his job, you could never talk to him without condescending arrogant replies. When he retired, he was replaced by a person who only knew anything about federal and international tax, and was a horrible manager; you could never trust what he said as he would reverse it a week later; put extreme stress and pressure on the dept. Company wide, morale is very poor. I finally had enough and retired early because of heart problems which I place the blame for directly on ADM, in short, I was being worked to death. There is also a lot of corruption.
