TERRIBLE PLACE TO WORK!

Pros

There are zero pros working for them.

Cons

Unethical, lying, hostile working environment. Allow upper management employees, including attorney's to cus you out while hollowering at you and nothing is done. Management says one thing but does another. You report anything to ethics and compliance and you are walked out the door. Terrible place to work.

Shady Leadership

Pros

Some great coworkers Decent work life balance overall (unless leadership wanted something then it needed to be done immediately regardless of the day/time)

Cons

Leadership blatantly lies - convinces you of one thing then pulls the rug out from under you once they get what they want out of you CFO under investigation for fraud - not surprised and unfortunately that culture is still there Very little room for growth Any type of disability/medical/family accommodation they will hold against you Overall culture of lying - experienced this across many departments. Leadership tells you what they think you want to hear, then you ask them to follow through and suddenly they can’t help you.

Local leadership does the best they can

Pros

Local management does the best they can against the incompetence of global leadership. Salary is best in area Coworkers are mostly great, but there are always 1-2 drama llamas

Cons

Global leadership of the R&D division is a joke. They’re scattered, don’t communicate well, and try to micromanage from different continents. Salary is dependent on department, and although best in area, still below market value. Upkeep and maintenance is a joke. The team does the best they can with minimal resources allocated to them. Safety culture mistakes conversation and action for effectiveness. Very reactive instead of proactive. Blanket dictates for safety rules that ignore specific situations where the new safety equipment could actually be a hazard. This has been repeated multiple times in the past few years. Business units dictate direction of research and product development instead of letting R&D drive innovation to position ADM on the cutting edge, instead we just try to do things cheaper than competitors who developed products.
