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.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
