Pros

Big name, well known. Most managers are technically competent and can be a great source of information. Large network of breweries, if interested in relocation.

Cons

No real upward mobility at this point. New company structure is much tighter than old, hard to get promoted. Cutting costs and funds through all depts- increasing paperwork, decreasing salaries, increasing responsibility and expectations and decreasing payout. Recently cancelled pension system. Not a great place for women to work. Union facilities. Have disbanded the previously large corp engineering department - less career options available - management or nothing, really. No real capital projects in the pipeline for a few years.

Pros

Drivers are mostly great to work with. You get to travel around central Minnesota and visit all sorts of liqueur stores and see the inner workings of them all. Somewhat flexible work schedule.

Cons

Middle management is very edgy and will take out their frustration on you for the smallest of things. At first my hours were very consistent (25-50) but when winter rolls around they cut me down to 6 hours per week and still expected me to stick around.

Pros

The pay and benefits were good. The work could be challenging if you made it so.

Cons

There didn't appear to be any type of formal development planning systems in place. It was all handled individually and had to be driven by the individual employee. Except in the rare situations where someone was on the fast track and then they were mentored, put on plum assignments and moved up the organizational chart. Promotions were more tied to who someone knew ( or were related to.) , and hung out with. Rather than the work that they did.
