Great Values

Pros

The company aspires to great things, wants to embrace innovation, and foster a continuous learning ethos. It has highly motivated, talented and sincere colleagues who are willing to share their experience with each other. Teamwork is highly valued and rewarded. The company was transformed over the past 10 years by new leadership.

Cons

Blind devotion to "shareholder value" will be the Achilles heel for delivering on the leadership's aspirations. You can't close a facility, toss 80 people on the street right before Christmas and rationalize it with "blah, blah, blah shareholder value." Internal loyalty will be eroded by this tone deafness. Much of what they do in support of their aspirations they try to do on the cheap.

Management?

Pros

Work all the overtime you want. Just when you think you might go home early to see the family, BAM they tell you your working more overtime to fix someone else's screw up! Brings a smile to my face

Cons

Come be told what to do by a boss who has no clue what they are doing, if that's what your into. Bonuses? Never heard of them. Management to employees relationship? Also unheard of. This company has no relationship with their hard working employees. If you are ok with a 35 cent raise every year until you retire or die at the facility then this is the place for you.

Pros

I've had an incredibly positive experience at ADM as a young professional.

Cons

Management usually consists of inexperienced employees who need advancement and do not wish to leave the company. If they don't take management training seriously, things can spiral out of control quickly. This translates to people who would prefer to be "in the trenches" managing the company... which means micromanagement, miscommunication, and frustration.
