Pros

Procter has great people with a very strong value system. Their compensation seems to be competitive.

Cons

P&G is one of those companies in which you may learn a great deal about your category and function but what you really learn that is transferrable at other companies is how to get things done. There are many layers of management to go through to make decisions. You have to learn to deal with significant layers of bureacracy to accomplish things.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
