Pros

There is Job stability, esp. in a tough economy (because consumers still need staple household goods). P&G provides a very thorough training program for all new hires and even more senior levels. The company also has a believe in continued information sharing through corporate networks to leverage cross-category learnings and drive scale.

Cons

While P&G is a great company, there is a lot of corporate bureacracy that drives slow decision making processes. There is a need to "rightsize" qualification plans to prevent late launch into market. Sometimes P&G is too focused on making all decisions based on consumer data and will not move forward unless all the t's are crossed. Additinoally, there appears to be unbalanced work/life balance between different functions & categories.

Pros

Heavy emphasis on personal growth such as leadership skills, managing your career, and navigating through the company. The company itself is very reputable with well-known brands across the globe and a long history of success. Even if you decide not to stay, the fact that you've worked here is good experience to have on your resume. Non-R&D functions have great mobility and recognition. If you consider P&G as a non-Engineer, the commercial functions are by far more rewarding both professionally and personally.

Cons

Advancement is difficult if you come into R&D as a researcher. The ceiling for advancement is typically 2 levels up. Ironically, 2 levels up is exactly where B.S. Engineers come in as a starting level. A person coming into the company with a Masters in Science starts 2 levels BELOW a Bachelor's Engineer. A Ph.D. starts at the same level as a Bachelor's Engineer. Almost all R&D upper management has an engineering background and perpetuates the mentality of engineering equals superiority.
