Procter & Gamble reviews

If you enter the company after the age of 40 there is very little advancement. Out in the field, and I did not put my state or city, it is a different picture. Especially if you entered the work force late in life or you are in a channel that is not well respected.In sales the biggest disconnect is the lack of "real life" experience of the leadership teams in the channel. Very few have real sales experience and consequently the same mistakes are repeated time and time again. That is the most frustrating aspect of employment with P&G. Management is so proctorized that they are unable or unwilling to listen to those under them about the "really reallys". Goals are always "stretch goals" because they are unrealistic. I realize every management team makes mistakes. But, as a stock holder it is appalling that management is unable to learn from past mistakes. That is because mistakes are never admitted or passed down for others to learn from and not repeat. I like celebrating accomplishments, but we also need to learn from the past not ignore it to our detriment. Geez look at what is happening with Pringles!!

CINCINNATI OH is not the most live place for young adults. The city is stagnant but the company is working to make downtown CIncinnati more urban. Were P&G located in another city, it would be the best place in the world to work.
