Pros

Salaries in line with industry, benefits slightly above average, great culture and camaraderie between employees, great purpose... "Feed The World"

Cons

Misalignment between strategy and operations, everybody wants to talk about strategy but very few can make it happen. Probably the worst overall information system setup I have ever seen in a large company; all systems are outsourced to different companies and there is no cohesion of information flow.

No sense of excitement. Culture is bureaucratic and meeting bound.

Pros

The coffee machine. Benefits are nice. Good 401k match and a deferred compensation plan, too.

Cons

The company is convinced it can drive innovation by cutting research spending significantly. Go figure.
