Pros

Shiny new CBD office, flexible working available, free product samples.

Cons

Salaries well below market, patronising management, impossible to be promoted without networking, job vacancies often take forever to be filled with remaining employees expected to fill gaps without compensation.

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.
