Some answers to your questions about career opportunities with Monsanto What kind of a company would I be joining?
You would be joining a world-wide company that has grown from a single-product manufacturer to one of the largest chemical companies in the U.S. in 60 years. Today, Monsanto is a highly diversified producer of chemical, plastics and petroleum products. It operates 23 plants and 9 laboratories. . . has approximately 19,000 employees in this country alone. And Monsanto is still growing rapidly—in technology, new products, markets. Just how diversified is Monsanto?
Highly—and in several ways. We are diversified in products; numbered in the thousands, they serve industry, agriculture, national defense. The names of our seven Divisions—Agricultural, Organic, Inorganic, Hydrocarbons, Plastics, Overseas, Research & Engineering—give you some idea of our tremendous scope.

We are diversified in geography; with general headquarters in St. Louis, Monsanto maintains a vast complex of facilities throughout the U. S. and abroad. Organizationally, is Monsanto progressive?
Very definitely. Organizational.flexibility to meet the changing needs of the company and its customers is a company policy. Naturally, this philosophy of growth ultimately benefits you, the employee, too. * Here are two examples of Monsanto progress:

Tex., monomers from its Texas City plant, and products of the Monsanto-owned Lion Oil Company. Monsanto Research Corporation. This wholly owned subsidiary is responsible for all Monsanto research and development activities for agencies of the Fed-
eral government.

In addition, this Corporation manages Mound Laboratory, a research facility of the Atomic Energy Commission.
