Pros

They are strongly loyal to their employees, taking the view that a stable workforce is the cornerstone of a stable company. Their stated mission - to serve God and benefit the world - are spoken often and are printed on the back of many employees' business cards. They are, however, still a commodities trading company at base and in dealing with other firms do not shrink from capitalist tenants.

Cons

When stability is highly valued, any company tends to try not to fire lack-luster performers. This can lead to less motivated, less competent employees.

This was one of the worst companies I have ever worked for.

Pros

There was freedom to come and go as you please. That's about it.

Cons

You are set up for failure at this place. There is a huge lack of training. The Employee College is a joke! You don't get anywhere with hard work and honesty. The office culture is untrustworthy. Good people get fired. I have seen people at work drunk and high working on railcars and they somehow get to keep their job. The railcar crews get to do whatever they want and still keep a job! They can be a no call no show for two or three days and still keep a job! They can be late every day and walk off of the job and still keep a job! You are not paid what you are worth unless you are in an upper management position. Trust no one. Everyone has a motive. Favoritism is rampant throughout the company!
