New CEO, company stuck in old ways

Pros

Good experience can come your way if you're lucky enough to have a good manager. There are lots of good leaders.

Cons

Huge company, slow everything. Too much politics not enough action to innovate. If the whole company was on board with the new CEO's vision, it would have been a nice place to work. But people are stuck in their old ways and unfortunately the old people are the ones making the calls. People tend to manage others based on seniority instead of actually being knowledgeable on their businesses. Culture sucks. Everyone is trying too hard to suck up to senior management and is afraid of constructive criticism. Even when they do team building events it seems like an item to check off a list instead of putting their whole heart behind it in order to better the team and culture. Everyone is burnt out. Too much responsibility, too little recognition. People don't try to innovate much, because by the time the results come up, they will probably not be working for the same part of the business anyway. So most of the time its not worth taking risks and challenging the old ways of getting things done. Lots more to say, but this should give you an idea. Watch out for your back. Lots of back stabbers.

P&G NAM role

Pros

P&G is well known for being a great company to work for with great career opportunities, training and rewards.

Cons

They are not as flexible as they like to think. After a few years, if you stay at the same level the personal development stops. You have to push hard for the support, career guidance, coaching and development. Over the last few years the sell-off of many brands had led to a significant drop in morale and a far less collaborative environment. Kind of dog-eat-dog if you like.

Pros

Global, top consumer products company. Opportunities to broaden your experiences across multiple categories and roles and around the world. Solid ethics. Multifunctional team groups. Ownership and passion for your work, job and company are encouraged and facilitated. Profit sharing truly accumulates and becomes very meaningful for your retirement if you can make it 20+ years.

Cons

Change is cumbersome. Virtually all levels except top and restructure team are powerless when restructures are planned. You are treated very, very well until it is determined your time to go. At this time, your ownership and passion are expected to stop.
