Pros

Interesting industry, great brands, lots of opportunities to see nightlife

Cons

Where to start.... If you have any aspirations on being a high-performing professional with a strong sense of work ethics and integrity, this is not the place for you. Do not expect to be rewarded for hard work, overdelivery or strong results. Do expect to see an astonishing amount of mediocre executives across senior ranks that seem mostly interested in looking out for themselves and kissing butt. Highly political and autqcratic work environment where senior executives take as their right to be verbally abusive towards their employees. Very little time is spent on making sure that the people WHO ACTUALLY DO THE WORK have the tools and the direction (not to mention the motivation) necessary to deliver company objectives. HR is a complete joke and only exist to enable management to get rid of people who are either too capable or not easily intimated. As a woman, expect to have to accept sexist comments on almost a daily basis. And the business continues to suffer.
