While never short of cutting-edge projects to work on, the work environment felt dull and stiff at times.

A decade of excellent service means nothing compared to "shareholder value".

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Above average health and retirement benefits

Cons

Lower than average salaries for entry-level management or office "grunts". Upper tier of management shows concern over waste, yet will leap into some high-risk ventures while dragging feet on making desirable or necessary upgrades to processes or equipment.

QC Lab is more like a bad horror movie!

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of great people in this company. Overall a great place to work as long as you're in the right department. If you're considering a position in the QC Lab, you'd be better off pumping septic systems with a drinking straw than tolerating the broomstick riding manager.

Cons

People not qualified being put in supervisory positions. Those people then treat you like trash and lie to cover their own behinds. Obviously fat and lazy is rewarded and if you don't kiss fat and lazy's ass, you're not "ADM Material".
