Pros

Large private company. Historically stable.

Cons

Offshoring tons of jobs (IT, HR, Finance, etc) at a breakneck pace. Much faster than can be absorbed. Very secretive about the end game. Rumors include that they are preparing to go private. All levels of management appears to pass responsibility and understanding off to others. Just following orders, or it is what it is. Cargill used to care about employees and value them. Now they are just replaceable and expendable.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
