      A good company for developing your skills but some questionable decisions when it comes to promotions.

      Pros

      Good salary and benefits. One of the best companies when it comes to developing the skills of its employees. Cross functional collaboration opportunities. Good work & life balance and a family friendly workplace. Overall good employee morale and most co-workers are knowledgeable and a joy to work with.

      Cons

      Most of the problems come with senior management (Associate Director and above). The decision making process is very slow. Some questionable promotions when it comes to Section head level and above. Appears that business contributions matter very little in who gets promoted. Often, its people taking credit for the work that gets recognized rather than the actual people doing it.

      Pluses and Minuses of P&G

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent and well established processes, great and talented professionals. Excellent reputation, global, great brands. Good benefits. Strive for excellence. Respect for diversity. Excellent place to learn the consumer products business.

      Cons

      New people right out of college are typically satisfied with their advancement because their relationships develop slowly and they have no expectation regarding speed of advancement since they've never worked anywhere else. If you are a seasoned professional coming in mid career, your advancement will be slow because you have to build a strong network to advance at P&G. The relationships come first, the work and your performance are second.

      Starting off at P&G can be rough for intern or new hire; stick with it for a couple of years to see if you like it.

      Pros

      Job security (pretty much). If you do well and get hired, you have a job for the forseeable future. Also if the economy takes a tumble, you can count on your retirement program surviving very well. You can also look forward to that for decades to come; P&G execs have no need of pulling an Enron, MCI, Globodyne (Fun with Dick & Jane), imclone, etc. The top execs will not abscond with loads of money while leaving thousands of employees broke. There are many other perks too besides the great healthcare/daycare benefits. Usually you get gift packs delivered by Christmas, bonus store items, consumer panels (compensated opinion surveys), free product, etc. etc. There's also King's Island days/giveaways. P&G generally keeps you challenged.

      Cons

      There are politics and lots of them, so get used to it. Even as an intern, if you get the wrong boss, chances are you won't want to come back. If it's your first job experience of any kind after high school/college, do NOT think that all companies are like this.
