Pros

Fancy new corporate office building, excellent location, most employees are friendly. Discounted purchases of meat! Benefits are pretty good.

Cons

-Below market salaries for lower level positions -Sketchy accounting practices -A management team from Brazil that thinks they can make their own rules, with little regard towards American laws and business practices -Lots of knee jerk business decisions, and big ego's

Pros

Great location, wonderful facilities. Industry & market share leader. Historically significant. When times are good this is a great company to be part of, however, with the current state of the industry (closed borders, food safety concerns, declining consumer purchase of high-quality cuts) times and the company have become extremely lean. Pork opps have been historically healthy and profitable. I was at Swift & Company prior the JBS acquisition.

Cons

Industry in decline and Swift's plants need an infusion of funds. Foreign ownership has turned a once strong branded marketer into an operational-driven plow horse. New senior management is adapting to American consumer and has had spotty success.
