Pros

Good company values and hard working employees. Salaries/benefits are benchmark with peers but are negotiable. Full of challenges which makes work interesting. Personal growth and training are encouraged and supported by Management eg payment of professional fees, etc

Cons

Sometimes you can be called to duty at odd hours especially for urgent business issues. It is not easy to have a promotion due to limited open senior roles.

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.
