Pros

Consistently known as one of the best employers to work for, and I can further attest to that. The growth potential is tangible, and it starts from a desire to develop growth from the top. Premium products that the company can relate to. Truly a collaborative environment. Competitive pay and the benefits are helpful. Very accommodative and offices all around the world.

Cons

It is not all the time, but like many places, there is a crunch time to deliver. Being an industry leader, a reason for why the company rewards there employees is because, we work hard. Moreover, the exponential growth experienced in the higher band levels, often does level off quite materially, once someone hits a certain band level.

Pros

Pay & Benefits are wonderful

Cons

Unrealistic expectations towards employees Insurance benefits *Managers* are composed of front-line production leads and those who may oversee or supervise.* The work-life balance is severely lacking, and there are biased managers who add negative connotations to peers' actions without any solid evidence or knowledge. Furthermore, these managers often lack technical expertise regarding machinery and engage in excessive micromanagement of employees. The workplace lacks diversity as defined, and the hiring representatives are typically the same floor leads that micromanage peers creating unfair hiring process at Diageo. Many individuals who have encountered the corrupt practices lead reps in previous jobs are frequently denied opportunities.
