Pros

Cargill was very supportive of their employees. My boss was great as was his boss and so on. The company has a great vibe and I never know anyone there that had any interpersonal conflicts.

Cons

Cargill is mostly involved with commodities so if that does not float your boat then you may wish to keep looking.

Pros

Paid weekly. Holiday pay (after completion of probation - 45 work days). Free banking/direct deposit enrollment offered. Medical/dental at reasonable price.

Cons

6 day work weeks. Majority of non-English speaking workers. Medical/dental not immediately available. Medical/dental taken away of not working 40+ hours/week. Commute is less than desirable. Employee parking is a joke & major safety concern (A railroad crossing is at the entrance/exit of the facility).

Too much responsibility - not enough support

Pros

When HR wasn't run by some young thinks-he-knows-it-all brown-noser, hourly employees mattered and were cared for by the company. Now money outweighs employees.

Cons

A lot of responsibility was put on one or two people and because information was always on a 'need-to-know' basis, employees were never sure of what was happening around them.
