Pros

Lots of freedom in a sales role, great products that literally create their own demand. The products have a good reputation in the ag field. Great benefits, employee longevity (depending on position). You can go places, up or lateral. Mostly good managers.

Cons

HR seems to run this company often overpowering managers and has the final say in almost everything. Company president created a long standing hiring freeze despite a 30 percent rate of growth with the companies bottom line in one year. Positions remain unfilled despite need for headcount. The purchase of a generics competitor has put everything on hold. Marketing in Philadelphia has a clear disconnect with field employees and develops obsessions with pushing products that will not sell in certain areas. They are often deceptive in the way they write their marketing programs, making changes without communication to the field. Too much big company bureaucracy. Employes that are good at BS-ing and/or politically connected, seem to get promoted over those that actually produce and had been in the role producing, for years. Pay is below average for the industry.

Pros

Co-workers are the best part on my job; without them, wouldn't be worth staying.

Cons

Poor collaboration between business and IT groups, which results in poor solutions. Too much reliance on consultants, who add limited value. New executive management does not understand FMC's business segments at the level they need to, resulting in poor strategic decisions and planning.
