Pros

Procter and Gamble offers a great dynamic setting for newly graduate employees to grow, learn and develop. The company will provide you with a solid business knowledge, working framework and trainings. It offers good career opportunity until mid-senior positions, and possibilities to move abroad and travel (thou this might depend on the function you work in)

Cons

Procter and Gamble has a very set and standard way to conduct business, based on established and detailed processes. Roles can be very fragmented with limited and well defined responsabilities (as opposed to a more global approach). Once you have reached a mid-senior position room for advancement becomes scarce and the soft skills and appropriate P&G behavior becomes the key for success.

Pros

P&G is extremely well respected among in-house organizations, particularly in the intellectual property sector. P&G is well organized, and provides outstanding training for new lawyers. The company typically recruits directly from law schools and allows new attorneys to handle high-level work very early in their careers. The profit sharing program provides a very comfortable retirement and Cincinnati has a low cost of living.

Cons

You can really only count on being promoted once (band 2 to band 3). P&G legal is a large organization with increasingly fewer slots at the top as the company has decided to become leaner at the leadership level. The situation is fine if you don't have aspirations to have organization responsibilities. But if you're ambitious and talented, you may be rolling the dice a bit because talent is buffered by timing and the needs of the organization with respect to promotions. Also, while the training of new attorneys is excellent, you may find that development of others is not specifically recognized and rewarded to the extent that you might expect. Some managers are known to cherry pick issues from their direct-reports so they can add certain experiences to their professional record. Enforcement issues, mergers/divestitures, and high profile freedom to practice strategies are notoriously snatched away from junior attorneys.

Pros

All the promotion are made at the intern. You have international opportunities. You manage quickly big project. You can change of role each 3-4 year.

Cons

It is not the best place to work for people that don`t like challenge or responsabilities. They are expecting you to be a good leader
