Business Outlook
Pros
Strong, privately held company that generally performs well. Use to treat employees well and had a long-term outlook on things. Generally great people that you'll work with on a daily basis. Good work-life balance. Lots of room for movement, even without moving locations
Cons
New CEO/management is changing the culture. Much more near-term focused and focused strongly on following what consultants say. Extremely consensus driven so everything takes a LONG time (and has to be approved by everyone in the food chain). Employees are not enabled to make decisions quickly. The gears of Cargill turn very slow and low performers are not moved out but rather succeed because of the internal network and move around (i.e. fail up)
