Pros

Great people on the whole, nice culture and working environment. Flexible working hours and opportunities for progression if you go after them.

Cons

Huge organisation so you can just be a number, you need to drive your own career path, no one will do that for you. Had some terrible managers in my time there but also had a few great ones. Poor pay - lowest of the FMCG’s. Slow moving consumer goods company, driven by pharma processes so will always struggle to be competitive.

Pros

if you do your job well, no one will hound you or micro manage. it is a very solo job and can get repetitive. fun departmental and site wide activities planned.

Cons

cannot participate in all activities because contractors cannot be treated or "rewarded" or included as employees. Very hard to get hired on.
