Pros

Good mentors, great learning opportunity. Strong strategic plans make it easy to stay focused on scope and priorities.

Cons

Changed department and zero work life balance. Favoritism is big on people that have no life outside of Ingredion. Zero upward mobility and extremely large work loads.

Not a safe place to work

Pros

Nice co-workers, great pay.

Cons

I left because of safety concerns. In one building there is production/use of toxic sulfur dioxide. It has a suffocating smell but my manager assured me it was at a safe level to work in according to OSHA so I continued working. After leaving the plant, I continued to taste and smell the sulfur gas for hours. I kept burping and sneezing ( this was my body's way of getting rid of a foreign object). I became lightheaded so I proceeded to call poison control and they told me what to do. So as you can see they aren't "safety-oriented" really. There are railroads on the plant but no gates or flashing lights to warn pedestrians or cars when a train is coming. Accidents have happened in the past as well with train cars. Don't work here. I looked at the reviews here but ignored them. They were right.
