Pros

Many advancement opportunities. Upper management willing to listen to what you want out of the job and your goals for the future. There are a lot of different ingredient plants across the country so if you decide you don't like a certain ingredient theres plenty to choose from.

Cons

Difficult to find employment in the Research and Corporate field, not as many opportunities lie in the plants.

Pros

Wonderful co-workers. Safety is the top priority and every effort is made to ensure the safety of their employees - even if it makes a job more difficult. ADM does provide any necessary PPE and will try to get you the tools you need to complete a job safely. They do offer some good benefits packages and the position is a great way to gain experience so you can move on to a non soul-hurting job.

Cons

Constant overtime, working around 50 hours a week is a slow week. Many of the policies are senseless and there is a good chance of having something held against you as a reason to not be given a raise, which is something that comes up only once a year. The lab is on a rotating swing shift that should give you 40 hours a week and once a month, a four day weekend. However due to staffing issues and a high turnover there is an endless amount of overtime and having 4-7 12 hour days is normal. The work is easy, but due to a the amount of work you are expected to complete it can be stressful if you are the type of person who wants to finish all their assigned work. Many of the employees complain, when they first start with the company. After working there for a while employees become complacent and stop complaining to management as no changes are actually implemented. Management does claim they will try to improve conditions but have been saying that for years.
