No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Mead Johnson full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – Working on infant nutritional products had promise of being fulfilling.

Cons – The biggest "con" is its location in Evansville, Indiana. There is a tornado or severe weather every other minute and that is the most "exciting" thing that happens. If you like to watch paint dry, go to church, do not seek any culture and want to raise babies, this is the place for you. The company itself practices ageism and it is a good, old boy network. Someday, the current good old boys will know when they get to be a little too old themselves.

Advice to Senior Management – It is too profitable to take any advice and their General Counsel has them all covered-up on their management practices. They had to toe the line when they were part of Bristol-Myers Squibb but they run their own way now and are unfair to a lot of employees....but where else can one find a job in Evansville, Indiana so people "take it" until their job is eliminated for another cheaper and younger employee.

Pros – The workload is not heavy at all. And there's a lot of opportunities you could rotate in different positions, or even functions of business.
