Pros

Definitely the opportunity to learn. They call it P&G university for a reason. Great place to start your career without a doubt. The whole culture, organization and managers are prepared to receive you blank and train you. They are accepting of errors and have a great coaching system

Cons

Great salary and compensation as a new hire, but as time passes the salary does not grow as fast as one would want. Other alternatives outside become more attractive from a money standpoint. Additionally, being such a large company things do move slowly given huge procedures and alignment. Sometimes it feels like you just have to follow a recipe as everthing has already been done before. Different from smaller companies where you have more opportunity to create new stuff, new procedures, new ways to do business

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
