Pros

Decent pa, especially if you're hired from outside the company. Lots of opportunities if you're willing to take on extra projects and play the right game with management.

Cons

Horrible change management. Insufficient training, low employee morale, struggling to satisfy too many objectives with poor up-front preparation results in extra burden on employees.

Pros

Great people, strong brands, and a lot of ownership. I’ve had opportunities to manage large spend portfolios, lead cross-functional projects, and work with teams across Supply Chain, Finance, Quality, and R&D. The company invests in development and provides exposure to senior leadership that can help accelerate your career.

Cons

Performance and rewards don’t always feel aligned. High performers can sometimes feel underappreciated, and career advancement can be slower than expected due to organizational complexity and internal politics. Decision-making can also take longer than it should because of the number of stakeholders involved.
