Pros

Always been a factory producing great leaders Love the culture as long as you are away from the global headoffice Big challenges and stretch for high potentials People are great (outside of Globe House)

Cons

Global headoffice lacks leadership. Everyone here is saving their own jobs Top leadership has lost track of what makes BAT such a great company Lack of direction for the end markets Too much focus on the back office stuff
