Pros

Cargill has very strong ethics and as an employee, I feel proud to work for a company that is so committed to the values they promote. The direction of the company feels more exciting now than it has in the past 20 years. The vision seems clear and something that employees, contractors, customers and vendors can get excited about.

Cons

While the vision is exciting, the execution to achieve that vision is questionable. There are many large scale efforts of change going on at the same time and these efforts are not integrated. So, as an employee, it feels like a constant disruption, as a manager, it is hard to be constantly supporting when all these changes happen simultaneously. Lack of integration for all these efforts makes it appear that they are not organized and well-thought out.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
