Pros

intelligent workforce; you will learn a lot about yourself and how to run a brand or company

Cons

The company is not focused on profits anymore; if they were they would promote based on merit and not on gender, race, or sexual orientation. P&G's #1 focus is not shareholder value, it's diversity. If you don't belong to one of their affinity groups, your career is done. Meaning, if you're a white male; well, good luck to you. Unless of course you're a homosexual or in the process of becoming a woman, then they will spend thousands of dollars building you your own bathroom!

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".
