Pros

There are a few folks from RJRT that have stayed with Reynolds American post 2023 and a couple of the international placements to USA are not just “hired guns.” These folks understand the issues that the broader BAT group is facing, how to navigate it, as well as coach others on how to proceed effectively. They have seen this company’s culture when it was great and understand how it fell apart. They’ve been trying and failing for the better part of 6 years to get back to the future. If you land in one of these circles and are able to keep the tone and tenor as everyone gets moved around - you could find happiness here.

Cons

These people will be responsible for the turnaround if it happens but they’re the minority. Thus, happiness here is a long-shot. If it’s not panning out after you’ve stayed long enough to reap the initial benefits and experience…run.

Pros

Company car and free gas

Cons

1. The managerial style of the district manager in Seattle is extremely petty, his reviews make no sense whatsoever, and there is a rampant culture of favoritism going on in his district. 2. The insistence on doing “work withs” for a person with high functioning Autism was absolute torture. Even though reasonable accommodations were requested by me, none were given. 3. The district manager also referred to me as in proper nouns that were derogatory and EXTREMELY offensive to someone with Autism numerous times. 4. The payout of bonuses were also extremely infrequent, even though I qualified for them. 5. Finally during the interview process, one of the biggest selling points that was made to me was a promise of a work life balance with “exemplary pay.” Neither of which came to fruition.
