Pros

Great people, great goals and a great company. They have a good intern program at most locations which should give a lot of responsibility and project design work to interns. Typical projects are equipment and piping installs or replacements, addressing safety issues with physical installations (need a new platform, etc). You really do an engineer's work.

Cons

Since Cargill is so big, you end up with some communication issues with new information across the large sites and general changes in info across the business unit or Cargill as a whole. For managers a lot of emails come to them, I believe and they feel overloaded.

Pros

Cargill has a very wide Global reach to many countries which makes it interesting because there is a diverse perspective to the world view on food.

Cons

The balance between work and life can be very difficult to manage at Cargill. The global footprint means that employees must be available at very unattractive times of day.
