Pros
1) Labatt gives people the opportunity to move at the pace of their talent and ambition. If you deliver results and if you're geographically mobile, there is no ceiling on where you can go and what you can do! 2) As the market-leader in beer (and beverage alcohol as a whole), Labatt is a company that wants to win. The company has made significant investments to stay competitive in an evolving industry. It's exciting to see the new launches and acquisitions we make to stay ahead of the competition. 3) The company fosters a culture of Inclusivity and Diversity across all regions to drive high-performing and successful teams.
Cons
The culture at Labatt is not for everyone. This is not your regular 9-5 and not the company for you if the principals of meritocracy and ownership do not resonate with you.

Pros
- work with super smart, energetic people in a fast-paced environment - head office is in a great location in downtown Toronto close to Union Station and right on the lake - promotion based on merit not time in
Cons
- work/life balance can be difficult. Great for new grads where this might not be much of a concern - workload can feel overwhelming but you grow through it if you stick with it

Pros
You will learn a detailed and systematic approach to sales and distribution. Attending music and sports events which were sponsored. Fair compensation. Company car. Some stay and grow with the company for a long time.
Cons
Office culture was a bit toxic which stemmed from 1 leader. Senior sales staff felt undervalued and stressed at times. These issues led to relatively high turn over.

Pros
Our company embraces cross-functional movement, to give deserving people opportunities to learn all aspects of our business. I've been fortunate enough to work in 4 different functions and leverage learnings from each on a regular basis.
Cons
Despite a culture of informality in the workplace, we operate at a very high pace that can be very demanding (and exciting!!). Not everyone is willing and/or able to meet the expectations of the company.
