      Pros

      Senior management are the same people regardless of audience. That is they do not interface with the hourly employees any differently than they work with each other. Time of change and great opportunities for those who can navigate their way through.

      Cons

      Cargill is making the transition to business practices already in place in other industries. A substantial amount of change going on = stressful times. Upper management still has the mindset that "I did it so you should too". The right intentions to improve are there but in times of stress they revert back

      Mixed bag depending on which location you work at

      Pros

      Large company, so there are always opportunites to move around. Some locations are excellent places to work; they are not all created equal.

      Cons

      Poor work life balance, long hours, too many priorities, and poor leadership from mgmt. - This is specific to the plant I work at. Not all plants are necessarily like this.

      Pros

      Most mid-managers willing to work with you on home life issues Autonomy to do your job Great place to find your career if you are hired in as a college intern/recruit

      Cons

      It's not what you know, it's who you know. Most management positions are filled by college interns/recruits who are then put into "succession" plans to further develop and promote them. "Open" supervisory and management positions are usually filled before even being posted on internal job board.
