Pros

People quality is very high, learning opportunities are strong, especially during the first few years. Good business school with strong multifunctional exposure. Good flexible work life programs in place, though not equally utilized in different functions/countries of hubs.

Cons

While it was greatly entrepreneurial place still few years back, it became process/complex systems driven vs business need focused. More and more of the critical decisions are taken by the headquarters which results in declining in touch with the market, consumers, customers - and big delays, not to mention that internal transactions are up to 80% of the work. A lot of arrogance, politics and positioning in some of the regional teams - people are capable to sell few years market share decline story as big success (!).

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
