Pros
Great place to learn the core marketing skills that will be invaluable in any marketing or GM type role. Good GM training with significant early responsibility on projects. Good cross-functional exposure - you learn to develop strong influencing skills or you will sink. Good overall compensation package, especially for MBAs and the very low cost of living in Cincinnati.
Cons
It is becoming ever more process oriented. This largely depends on the brand you work on but too often the proces trumps the intent. the promotion time lines have increased so you're looking at 10 years to get to Director (athough that is significant responsibility - P&L for a Billion Dollar brand)
