Pros

Excellent at project management and lots of resources at your disposal to execute good ideas. Great training for smart people right out of college on strategy development, execution and analytical evaluation. P&G is great at identifying young professionals with high aptitude and then training them to be leaders.

Cons

If you didn't start your career there, you are basically treated like a domestic servant. You're needed, but you'll never be part of the family, and thus, your career very quickly will bump into a glass ceiling that you will never raise. If job security is what motivates you, you'll be happy. If advancement opportunities are desired, you will be very frustrated.

Pros

Large Fortune 500 Company. Looks great on a resume. Opportunity to travel to other sites and meet new an exciting people. Free products once a year if the plant does well. Nice employee gift basket during the holidays in December.

Cons

Very poor management at the plant level. Company claims to put value their employees but this is not evident at a plant level. It is extremely difficult for non-management employees to advance in the company. It is very difficult to get training and yet the employees are penalized (and even fired) for not learning fast enough. At the plant that I worked, the management is systematically getting rid of any employees with health issues. They are covering their backsides by finding every reason to write up employees to gather evidence to prove they have cause to terminate. For example, I was doing my own job and covering another position for an employee to had left the company. I had volunteered to cover the extra work until a replacement could be identified. I told my management that I would do the best I could to ensure that all the work was completed. I was written up because they told me that "I will do my best" was taken the wrong way.... WHAT? How is that statement taken the wrong way? There is only one way to take that statement and it is definitely a positive statement. Especially when I volunteered to cover the extra work? I was stepping up to the plate to do what was best for the company. I have at least a half dozen examples like this from the last 6 months that I was employed there. I am glad to be out of there. This type of behavior by the management makes for a very hostile work environment.

Pros

Brands brands brandsand thats it

Cons

I was a former gillette employee with 27 years of service. I always felt pg looked down to gillette employees and that became truth when I was fired for having an industrial accident. Management was more worried what to say to osha. No one cared about me after I returned to work I was fired. They were pissed that someone called 911 instead on calling a taxi. They made it sound that i don't bay attention. What the real truth is the Andover plant has a lousy saftey record. They forced the plant manager to quit and HR manager. They bring in new managers and they don't fix any thing but to make you think its your fault.
