Reynolds American reviews

-Work Life Balance - Unfortunately the work load is not on par to many peers across the country depending on TM/DM/KAM territory. Really a draw of the straw if you’ll be lucky or be on the other side of an unbalanced workload. Recommendations provided are not heard by senior leadership if it requires additional head count. Hello burn out! -Compensation - RAI likes to say they are comparable in salary to similar CPG companies, shows slides of their research to try and show employees what they want them to believe. Based on workload/skills/responsibility in your role you are most likely underpaid if your a Senior Manager. Many other CPG companies pay 10-20% more to comparable roles in the industry, was shocked to find out how far off RAI was during interviews with other organizations. Resources/Tools- the tools and resources lag far behind what personnel need to in order to deliver on goals that leadership is signing sales areas and regions up for. Boundaries - Boundaries and work life balance do not exist here. Working 12 hour days to stay afloat, getting/sending emails at 4AM/9PM, unrealistic turnarounds for feedback and constant fire drills. When this becomes the norm, these are not fire drills just a chaotic organization with no respect for its employees. Communication - The left hand does not know what is happening with the right. There are several departments and teams that don’t have a clue what the other is doing. Unfortunately all this is a downstream impact leaving field TMs/DMs/KAMs with unhappy customers, getting yelled at daily due to frustrations and no answers from internal teams. Bonus- Don’t count this into your compensation, in 2021 many a fraction of what was promised. Due to inaccurate reports, a changing metric scale and funky math it’s a toss up if you’ll actually receive the projection of your bonus for the work you’ve done.
