Pros

- Opportunities to move up - Prestigious Position at the facility - Fast track to management

Cons

- You have to work shift work with an engineering degree. - Work with managers who are mostly old and have an old fashion attitude with little room for you to bring innovative ideas to the table as a young individual. You get beat down. - If you quit before your 2 year contract you have to pay back your moving bonus and all costs associated. I received $2500 and had to pay ADM back $4500 - You are expected to move where needed. - You use virtually little to no engineering. - If it doesn't make the company money they are not interested... period. - Trust me. Keep looking for another company and let the good ol' boys run this place.

Pros

You have the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work across different locations and interact with people from a wide range of backgrounds. The role also allows you to build strong, genuine relationships with colleagues working alongside you day to day.

Cons

There is a noticeable lack of transparency within the organization. Communication from senior team members can be inconsistent, and at times feels misaligned with their actions. Recognition and positive feedback are limited, particularly outside of established internal circles. The company’s technology and processes can be outdated and overly complex, which can hinder efficiency. Additionally, the organizational structure is quite hierarchical, and there appears to be limited initiative from leadership to drive meaningful change. The role often extends beyond typical analyst responsibilities, requiring significant emotional labor in addition to technical work.
