Pros

- Great cross-functional talent, some of the best people I've ever had the pleasure to work with - Great processes and collaboration accross functions, which provides a great opportunity to go through a robust traditional marketing training - Experience is highly valued at other places - Great compensation - Classic brands with tons of consumer love - Awesome headquarter campus

Cons

- Culture has shifted significantly in the last couple of years, with fear of lossing your job dominating senior level decisions and behavior - Strong desire to change to a consumer-first approach from the top of the house, but struggling to commit in the president/director levels given performance pressures and short-term goals - Lack of transparency

Manufacturing, so always wanting more with less. Hard to please as they are constantly changing everything.
