Pros

The projects were interesting. There was also plenty of opportunity to change positions within the plant which kept me challenged.

Cons

The management does not recognize employees for their hard work. Credit is not given where it is due. The good ole boy network!

Pros

If you are lucky, you may get a comparable pay. A few well-known brands. Depending on your department you may get some reasonable work-life balance.

Cons

Great example of a passive-aggressive culture, where it’s all about survival at any cost. You’re on your own when it comes to career development; absolutely no company support. Constant cost cutting seems to be the only way to manage the business. Very few to no promotional opportunities; career development rotations ceased to exist about 4 years ago. Notion of employee motivation doesn’t exist. Obsolete performance management system, where people are managed by fear of getting a low rating at the end of the year.

Pros

Most friendly place I've ever worked. Great products to work on with an innovative and inventive team developing them. Salaries are good for the area and industry. Resolute focus on the business plan.

Cons

Young and junior marketing staff given too much responsibility too soon and this sadly shows in mistakes made by them. Talent Development was virtually non-existent while I worked with them. The organisation is too small in Europe to support effective development and the company rarely invests in international opportunities. Bonus scheme is below industry norm.
