Pros

Very strong values-based culture, with an increasing focus on inclusion for all employees, and global people development initiatives. Excellent brands with clear stories and mission to engage consumers in a responsible way.

Cons

Growing quickly in many markets, so workload can be heavy as company conservative in adding headcount until growth prospects are confirmed
