Pros

Reasonable to excellent HR policies where it counts.

Cons

It depends on where you work Cargill is "diversified". But there are definitely in crowds that protect each other even in face of obvious poor performance and punish those who try to contribute "out of turn".

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!
