Pros

Salaries are typically higher than average. Great opportunity to get a wide range of experience.

Cons

Management is demanding and expects perfection. General attitude is "make it happen!" Expectation is to work 50 or more hours per week. There is no recognition for a job well-done, just a new assignment and more work. Cargill is letting people go at record numbers due to off-shoring and outsourcing and this is creating havoc with systems and processes. HR and Finance is off shored to India or Costa Rica so there is virtually no support for employees unless they can speak Spanish or Hindi.

Pros

Love the hourly workers. Friendly, hard working people.

Cons

HUGE turnover rate. Management doesn't care about the people, everyone doesn't care just trying to get through the job. Not friendly or supportive management. Hard to work with coworkers to do the job that think the plant is a highschool. They say they care about home work life balence, but they don't. If you're a profesional, no room for advancement at mason city location, they don't want you to train or learn new job skills. Its like they are waiting for the younger college kids to come in with no experience and expect them to know anything about manufacturing.
