Pros

Best Sales Incentive structure in the industry Work life balance Started career advancement program for entry level employees recently Automation of travel claims, travel approvals and other day to day activities related to work Employee Training and development initiatives Iconic Brands to work with

Cons

Poor HR management even though HR policies are put in place just like any other MNC, but its not followed Too much politics at every level No Job Security Unfair management practices Worst work culture and environment Confused management Poor leadership at RPC level No employee empowerment till middle level management No employee motivation Doesn't value relationship with employees, distributors and other stakeholders Everything depends on the relationship with Reporting Manager If you highlight anything negative about seniors then you are put in a PIP and will be asked to resign. Senior Management makes employees work through fear factor. Key performance indicators doesn't matter. Management will not see if you are performing well or not. No proactive approach to support employees whenever they ask for help.

Pros

Pay & Benefits are wonderful

Cons

Unrealistic expectations towards employees Insurance benefits *Managers* are composed of front-line production leads and those who may oversee or supervise.* The work-life balance is severely lacking, and there are biased managers who add negative connotations to peers' actions without any solid evidence or knowledge. Furthermore, these managers often lack technical expertise regarding machinery and engage in excessive micromanagement of employees. The workplace lacks diversity as defined, and the hiring representatives are typically the same floor leads that micromanage peers creating unfair hiring process at Diageo. Many individuals who have encountered the corrupt practices lead reps in previous jobs are frequently denied opportunities.
