Pros
* Learn from the best two-faced political players in the game. * Set up pointless bonding events rather than pay market value. * No need for creativity
Cons
* Working in marketing is a high stress position at Ferguson. You spend more of your time playing politics and blaming others than doing actual work. Most of the working day is in meetings talking about doing work and then writing up documentation that will buried in their cavernous vault of Sharepoint. * At the first sign of financial trouble the Marketing team is gutted by upper management to save on labor. * This team is more about who you know and what you can say you did rather than what you have done. Doesn't matter if your contributions were profitable or even good, just that upper management liked it. Personally my position was replaced by 3 contract workers that cost the company more money than keeping me, but I was the outcast of the group and needed to go.
