Pros

Good pay. Company car. A lot of young, bright, and hard working people scattered throughout different departments.

Cons

Unwilling to part with old ways of thinking. Need to understand that this is the US market, and employees and customers alike have certain expectations. Projects are given last minute so that you constantly feel like you must be at the office 10+ hours per day. Limited Americans in senior roles, which creates a headache when trying to push for changes unique to the US market.

Pros

Intelligent engaged people, Modern offices, Decent pay, and good retirement benefits.

Cons

Growing pains of a European company modifying its business to grow its American footprint. Senior leadership was mostly European. Felt disconnected from American grocery culture.
