Pros

Innovative products that make you proud to be associated with. Good and hardworking colleagues who are trying their best to the numurous manual work.

Cons

- Expats who have never been to or work in Asia. No or little cultural initiation programmes to orientate them. No EQ in people management due to cultural differences. - Management practices that are at least a century behind. Controls employees like a school discipline master. Zero tolerances on being late. A minute late will get you into the black book. - Lack of trust. Always believes that Brit thinking is far superior than the locals. Plenty of micro managing. Not opened to new ideas or inputs from employees especially those who have multiple Multi National Companies experiences. - Certain level of integrity issues within management team here. "Protect your own kind" seems to be the mantra. Quick to cover up for their kind but quick to fire the locals over trivial issues. Certain management team members enjoy greater priviledges. - Being vocal is asking for trouble.

Pros

Wonderful products and some great people. Respected among consumers

Cons

Antiquated systems, horrible lead times for products. Not much respect given to the experts in US business. If corporate office says we are doing/taking something, even if against the advise of sales managers and retailers, we have to do/take it. Exec team very secretive about changes and initiatives. When information is shared, tends to change soon after. Turn over. WAY to high.
