Pros

AGCO's culture is highly collaborative, and everyone is very willing to help where they can. I was impressed by the ability this company had to feel like a small company despite the fact it is a $10B+ company.

Cons

No real complaints, the company is growing. The only potential negative for people would be the agriculture industry, but even that is fine because a lot of those products are very cool.

Opportunity for Growth

Pros

The pay is good. AGCO competes against John Deere and CNH (among others) for a finite group of specialized employees with Ag machinery backgrounds. There are some cross over opportunities from the Auto industry, Parts, Service, and Manufacturing industries. But nothing beats an employee with time around farm machinery - be it sales, marketing, or technical positions. AGCO has undergone tremendous growth over the past 5 or 10 years. With that growth comes the need to improve systems, sales skills, marketing, IT projects and technical projects. You will be challenged and allowed to make changes if your skill set allows it.

Cons

You get the feeling there are not enough people to get the projects completed. And there are a LOT of projects that need to be completed (and started) to keep up with the pace of growth. They value leadership and planning - more. They could put more emphasis on getting more people who get things done - i.e. implement the plans.

Pros

Decent hours Comfortable, relaxed work environment Merit salary increases Decent location Potential to advance career with hard work.

Cons

Wayyyy to many middle managers Very little accountability in the various departments Everyone seems "knows it all" Each time a new company is acquired, that business' operating procedures (ordering, shipping, demand planning, etc) is kept - so AGCO does not have one process to follow -it tends to be a complicated mess between the various factories.
