Pros

Great opportunity for advancement, and you own your geographic territory. The benefits are pretty good. There is a flexible scedule which leaves time for a good work life balance.

Cons

The constant change in direction from upper management. We are defiantly not compensated for the amount of work we do. We are the lowest paid of all the major tobacco companies, with the exception of commonwealth. The industry as a whole is in a steady decline so I really don't know if there is a long term future in the tobacco industry.

Pros

Great compensation package, some very nice, decent people, but counterbalanced by some complete lunatics

Cons

Extremely political and toxic environment, massive lack of diversity and especially now that they don't "need" to do it anymore, you can see true colors coming out. Advancement and performance is dependent on who you know. No meaningful feedback on how to improve and what actually needs to be done. A tendency to love bright shiny objects and pretty presentation decks, but no real meaningful strategy. And they do not seem to even know themselves what they want, which makes delivering at a high level very challenging. Current CEO is doing a good job I think but he has no idea of the layers of toxicity underneath. I also get a sense that current results are being propped up by people who are on the verge of retirement and will never find another job outside the industry - therefore trying to maximise the most they can out of the next few years with no view to what will happen 5 or 10 years down the road.
