I don't see a pro to working here. Except the people you work with.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, experienced but undervalued coworkers

Cons

Management based on fear, you are not allowed to use your experience and talent so as to continuously improve the company, you have to always comply with what the country manager says and believes, you have to get permission for everything you intend to do to the country manager,there is a horrible working environment, there is favoritism and nepotism, Stone Age culture, affiliates around the world not integrated and not working together, no global strategy, they call themselves a flavor company but they do not have a basic flavors R&D strategy, their flavor ingredients global supply chain is not aligned, despite their so called change from ingredient company to a flavor company, the fact is that they are still relying heavily in selling ingredients, if you are considering interviewing, please consider closely the above remarks and don't waste your valuable career in 2 or 3 years of wasted time.

Pros

They provide bottled water. The sweatshop atmosphere is lovely, especially with execs from HR wanting to just fire people.

Cons

No growth, no time-off without fear of losing your job, dress code is so last century, lack of Senior Management truly understanding what is going on in the business and making decisions only based on numbers from a piece of paper
