Pros

Large, stable company, good benefits (not the best, but above average), good spectrum of products. Upper management is good. Average to good training programs that have improved over the years. Good place to start a career, not finish.

Cons

Oppressive mid management in the ag sector. Lots of corporate bullying in ag sector. Regularly runs off workers over 55 by closing good territorys for "business reasons" which makes it harder to file discrimination suits. Lots of "lip service" on important issues that drag the company down. Micro manageing limits free thinkers and creativity. They are happy with being average and not the best in a competitive market place.
