Business Outlook
Pros
Great autonomy afforded to employees. Effective, systematic methods for getting things done and figuring out the toughest problems. Good work-life balance (45 hours a week). Really smart and personable team members. A ton of top notch brands to work for, and strong opportunities to cross over into the US for greater opportunities.
Cons
High complexity within the company, tough to have clear (and fast) communication between teams and functions. Very meritocratic, relatively slow career curve. Tough to be super creative and formulate strategies unique to Canada. A bit rigid in its memo structure, quite nitpicky when it comes to wording and "P&G Lingo."
