It pays, but it is just a job.

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

They have fair wages and benefits. Opportunity to work overtime.

Cons

Poor Communication, difficult to get day shift or promotions. Safety is too extreme to where you feel like you are being treated like a child. (Safety IS very important, but they leave no decisions to employees to make appropriate precautions on their own) Many jobs are affected by weather and you can be exposed to the elements until you go to break. They lay responsibility of the job to be covered by the employee that showed up for work if the employee for the following shift does not show.

Pros

Decent benefits (6% 401K match, small pension, though very high deductible for health insurance), large company with opportunities, work locations worldwide, never boring, lots of work available, job security, excellent recognition (awards)

Cons

Lower pay than other NJ companies, salaries are set based upon competitors in other states where the cost of living is much less, slow growth, lots of red tape for promotions, not enough technicians, hire too many PhD. students directly out of college, lots of cliques and co-worker trash talking, high turnover

Business Outlook

Pros

Great Pay, Great benefits, lots of overtime

Cons

Shift work, last minute 16 hour shifts.. Ingredion works on a work relief system. Which means i can come in ready for an 8 hour shift but if your relief doesnt show, then you have to stay and cover the next shift..
