Pros

Your cross-functional team is stacked with smart, dedicated, hard-working people. It's also fun to work in food, since everyone has to eat! And if you want to learn how to be a brand manager, this is the place to do it.

Cons

Time to promotion is very slow. Leadership doesn't communicate key decisions in a clear or timely manner. There isn't a huge tolerance for risk taking or new thinking.

Great people, okay schedule, some perks and benefits were okay.

Cons

Manufacturing, so always wanting more with less. Hard to please as they are constantly changing everything.
