Pros

Access to exhaustive sources of information in pretty much any area of business expertize. High level of responsibility for every level - learning by being taught but also and in equal manner by being allowed to do things on your own. Investment behind growing capabilities (e.g. trainings, coaching, mentor-ship system, etc).

Cons

Huge workload - if not careful it can fast & easily lead to burn out - in the last years even more so than ever. Extreme pressure & high competitiveness environment. For specific functions, even at lower levels of management, the "up or out" system means that working 10-12 hours/ day is just not going to cut it.

Pros

-Strong training ground for brand management -Managers are good for the most part

Cons

-Unfortunately this generation of VPs, SVPs Presidents, C-Suite and CEO are among the worst I've ever seen; soul draining culture and "frantic" versus thought-through strategies. Because P&G is up-or-out, unfortunately everyone who is at that level all operate the same: an obsession with work, high panic which ultimately leads to beating down on the organization to do more while not actually caring about the employees. There is an enormous mental health crisis in the Procter & Gamble walls right now that HR and leadership is just simply not looking to change because business results are more important to them -Career growth is a joke - 100% politics, 0% merit. Some of the most recent appointments within the company are very good examples of this specifically with multiple promotions to executive levels with questionable results and known emotionally abusive issues but are mentees of the CEO -Very weak compensation structure vs CPG peers (even though P&G does not think this). They claim cost of living in Cincinnati makes it competitive but if they did a true deep dive on total comp structure, P&G is abysmal after your first 2 years there
