      Great place to start post MBA and great place to leave after a few years!

      Pros

      Great amount of responsibility early on; Surrounded by smart people from top MBA programs who can create a strong network (you will need it); Can make an impact as a leader and bolster your resume to get headhunted by several other CPGs/marketing firms in more geographically desireable locations; Managers don't track vacation - more of an honor system as long as you get the job done

      Cons

      Tough learning curve for new hires; Can be challenging to maintain work/life balance especially dependent on manager; you have input but no real say in your rotation structure/management/projects; very difficult to make real friends or date as a transplant to the area (locals can be colder than the winters!)

      Pros

      This is a very good place to work. People are friendly.

      Cons

      Union workers can be lazy. Often minorities are promoted over more qualified people. OEM's don't always work out well.
