Pros

Agile work environment; great benefits, employee perks, socially responsible company.

Cons

Despite lots of talk about upward career movement promotions are based on how how adept one is at stroke senior management ego vs actual talent. Many decisions are made in a vacuum based on senior management opinion rather than actual fact/numbers. Best employment for traditional supply chain, finance and marketing professionals. Negotiate your compensation up front because once employed salary increases are limited.

Pros

Great people, strong brands, and a lot of ownership. I’ve had opportunities to manage large spend portfolios, lead cross-functional projects, and work with teams across Supply Chain, Finance, Quality, and R&D. The company invests in development and provides exposure to senior leadership that can help accelerate your career.

Cons

Performance and rewards don’t always feel aligned. High performers can sometimes feel underappreciated, and career advancement can be slower than expected due to organizational complexity and internal politics. Decision-making can also take longer than it should because of the number of stakeholders involved.
