Pros

Pays employee slight above market average; that's about it

Cons

1) Ongoing cost-cutting: when people leave P&G, there is no replacement. Remaining employees have to absorb the work and senior management expect employees to perform at the same level prior to absorbing additional work 2) Management losing its direction: we used to be a company that is focused on growth, now we are just focusing on cost-cutting because growth opportunities are limited. 3) Limited career progression: Many people in the company still believe that P&G is an exclusively promote from within company without realising that this is no longer true

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
