Pros

P&G offers competitive salaries and profit sharing for a midwestern-based company. The work-life balance is excellent for anyone raising a family. Flexible work arrangements when possible allow employees to remain active in their personal lives while still delivering on work objectives.

Cons

There's very little accountability. Project managers, supply owners, and anyone with authority to make crucial business decisions are rarely penalized in any way for their incompetence. Status quo is the name of the game and anyone proposing a dissenting viewpoint will be quickly minimized or scolded for having the temerity to challenge the group think. To some this may seem as a positive in that it implies a sort of job security since mistakes will not be dealt with. For those with ambition to pursue a higher standard of scientific excellence will find themselves demoralized by the rigid nature of the old guard.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
