Pros
- Very progressive "millennial" culture, with a large focus on DEI. - Friendly team & business unit (BU) partners that are generally willing to help with any issues. - A lot of professional growth webinars and sessions that you don't see at smaller companies. - Flexible work options, including permanent remote work and hybrid options available. Nice corporate office downtown if you choose to work there. - Many career opportunities across the hundreds of HQ teams after 2 years in the role. However, promotions are largely based on who you know, so your mileage may vary depending on how supportive your manager is of your career development.
Kontras
- Pay is below average when compared to similar entry-level supply chain jobs around the Twin Cities (3M, General Mills, etc.) - Nearly every IT system is built in-house, so ERP knowledge does not transfer between companies. There is a large reliance on legacy systems built in the early 2000s which causes some issues that could have been prevented with modern system upgrades. - Very fast-moving and at times overwhelming workload. This is largely driven by COVID-19 pandemic supply chain disruptions that cause a lot of additional work & re-work. More analysts per team are needed to balance the workload.
