Pros

You feel good knowing that you work for a big and successful company. If you work hard you will have lot of opportunities. If you are lucky to also work for a good management.

Cons

Lot of pressure during the busy season, not enough recognition for the hard work.

Pros

Cargill is a great company, used to be greater. It's the school for commodity trading and risk management, If you are not in this field in Cargill then you are missing all the action. Top class methodology and approach towards market risk management and controls. Great insight into commodity markets and great connection with both origin and destination markets.

Cons

Has become too political and full of "claimed to be good processes".In reality those have killed entrepreneurial approach and good risk taking. Work-life balance is not easily achieved. Wasted time in political battles.

Pros

A truly multinational company. Is not very stingy in spending money except for giving salaries to employees.

Cons

Is still very small in India. The culture is very rigid and top down
