Pros

401k match, pension after 3 years, as long as you show up everyday you will have a job regardless of performance. Decent pay if you sacrifice having a life.

Cons

Nepotism, “just a number” in production, understaffed, forced overtime regularly every Saturday and most Sunday continuous, 2 free weekends a year, unqualified management, poor onboarding program, lack of advancement. Undertones of racism and sexism with blunt harassment with no consequences.

Pros

ADM is a company of deep integrity and invests heavily in employee education and support. I would definitely recommend a career with this global leader.

Cons

IT is a bit immature as compared to the companies overall maturity which can sometimes make it feel like an impossible task to catch up. :)

Pros

You have the opportunity to see the direct impact of your work across different locations and interact with people from a wide range of backgrounds. The role also allows you to build strong, genuine relationships with colleagues working alongside you day to day.

Cons

There is a noticeable lack of transparency within the organization. Communication from senior team members can be inconsistent, and at times feels misaligned with their actions. Recognition and positive feedback are limited, particularly outside of established internal circles. The company’s technology and processes can be outdated and overly complex, which can hinder efficiency. Additionally, the organizational structure is quite hierarchical, and there appears to be limited initiative from leadership to drive meaningful change. The role often extends beyond typical analyst responsibilities, requiring significant emotional labor in addition to technical work.
