Pros

Great peers. Fantastic buildings & brands. People want this company to survive, I am not sure the leadership is focused on winning.

Cons

Not challenging. Not enough $. Not empowered. No innovation. Needs to focus on healthy food options for consumers - will not survive selling junk food.

Pros

Great culture and truly amazing coworkers. Strong company history of success with iconic brands.

Cons

The company is going through a super tough season. Lots of jobs being moved offshore and it feels like nonstop restructuring / job loss. Job security feels very tenuous and morale is low.
