Pros

401 K you receive an extra 3% if your not on the pension program for 9% total

Cons

1. Management- management by fear, hide behind panel reviews as to why you your assignment is where all managers are taken but your not good enough for promotion consideration. You may rank in the top of your peers, even #1 and have done some fantastic work, but they have 1 person under each DM get a higher rating, which always goes to the person they are trying to promotion. The system is so broken any TM over 5 years has become synical and does close to the bare minimum. Overall, you will get the same raise as the person who leaves early friday to go hiking, never returns phone calls to peers, or even has retail stores that others have to help fix, as they haven't worked in weeks.

Pros

Very strong compensation package, lots of very nice genuine people on the Reynolds US side

Cons

Toxic, politically charged environment, cliques of people each trying to place their own people in roles. A singular mis-trust and dislike of "outside" people who are brought in to move the company forward but the existing people who have worked there for years and years are all trying to protect and sustain their own roles and their own cliques. All show and pretty presentations but no meaningful, meaty strategy
