Pros

pay, vacation, health benefits, security, development... although this has suffered greatly since the merger...

Cons

changes to management style since merger, naïve management too focused on cost cutting versus growing the business, short sighted, arrogant, high level managers lack experience by advancing faster than there accomplishments dictate, removed all experience from every facet of the business, not able to recognize the long term effects of such an wholesale drain on experience...

Pros

Stock (if you can last 5 years) and a 9% 401k Match( if you can last 3 years), mediocre health benefits and opportunity to work with large marketing agencies if in marketing

Cons

Leadership is poor and inexperienced. People are not valued but rather treated like "cattle". Lots of people in roles they are not ready for causing the massive decline of Core brands. No respect for diversity, it's simply a check the box for the company. Working 12 hour days and weekends is expected and the norm. The review process is flawed and completely subjective and not based on meritocracy or results. No American Sr. leadership therefore no sense of American Values for a 16 Billion dollar portfolio in America inclusive of iconic American Brands. ( head of marketing, head of sales and head of North America are Brazilian). 3 year 401k vest and 5 year stock vest.

Pros

There are some great people

Cons

Outside hires don't have the same advantages in getting promoted as their global management program counterparts. Senior management are encouraged to promote those first.
