It is a global company with a very regional focus, minimal collaboration and very conservative approach. - Anonymous employee Cargill Employee Review

Pros

The food industry is very dynamic, depending on where you are inside the company there are always new challenges: food safety, product development, etc It is a huge company with 70+ businesses, so there are opportunities to move domestically and internationally

Cons

Very conservative company - things are done in a same way for a very long time and if " they are not broken no need to fix them " - new ideas are not very well received It is a global company with a very limited view of the world, you can have several peers in different regions of the globe doing the same function, but you won't talk to them. You're ability to move can be very limited, some businesses don't like when people leave and prevent you from interviewing for different jobs.
