Pros

learn a lot about the PAIN of working with a highly bureaucratic organization. Need to be very lucky to meet a manager with good leadership skill.

Cons

it was a mistake to work for P&G. It is totally different from what I expected. Many inexperienced undergraduates were promoted to band 2 manager. Because of the promote from within culture, many other professionals with outside experience must start from the bottom and have to deal with these narrow-minded, arrogant folks. They treat entry-level employee very bad. They even fired employee whose spouse was 9-month pregnant. Overall, it is not a good place to work. Lots of politics played in many decision-makings. It is naive to believe that they act based on their principles and values.

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
