Pros

Pays employee slight above market average; that's about it

Cons

1) Ongoing cost-cutting: when people leave P&G, there is no replacement. Remaining employees have to absorb the work and senior management expect employees to perform at the same level prior to absorbing additional work 2) Management losing its direction: we used to be a company that is focused on growth, now we are just focusing on cost-cutting because growth opportunities are limited. 3) Limited career progression: Many people in the company still believe that P&G is an exclusively promote from within company without realising that this is no longer true

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
