Pros

It is a big enough company that there are many opportunities to advance you career or move to a different location, but still has a small company feel. There is a wide variety of geographic locations and machines to work one. There is a lot of support for moving to a cross-functional job (ex. engineering to marketing). Employee development highly valued. There is a wide variety of things to work to be done. Many employees work abroad for a few years of their career, but only if they want to.

Cons

Importance of process used to ensure brand quality can be frustrating.

Pros

Interesting problems and good access to latest tools to do the job. Motivated coworkers

Cons

Upper management is absurdly disconnected from doing anything remotely valuable. They are useless. All vision and innovation comes from the lowest levels. We really don't need directors and above at this company - they take large salaries and promote the idiots instead of the innovators.
