Pros
World's largest privately owned company. If you are a white male, don't rock the boat, and are willing to relocate, you will climb the corporate ladder!
Cons
Compensation is on the low end. Merit increases aren't performance related. Cargill is like Mad Men! White males run the place, upper management and CEO are drinking buddies outside of work, they have their favourites while at work and don't attempt to hide it. HR dept is all women and they speak of diversity and being against discrimination in the workplace, but women are still treated like second class citizens (lower pay, rarely promoted to managerial roles, emails ignored, excluded from decision making, etc). If you happen to mention this, even in strict confidence, you are marked and eventually disposed of (let go, downsized, restructured...they will find a way to get you out!). Would definitely not recommend any women work here if they want to be taken seriously and are looking for a promising career.
