Pros

Having the most recognized brand name in the world on your resume is always a plus. The new president of North America has really turned things around and it will be reflected in our financial performance. Work/life balance is acheivable.

Cons

Compensation: At my level, I do not receive a bonus. My management does not communicate the overall financial performance of the company and how our team directly impacts that bottom line. There is no commuication on how we are promoted. In such a large company it is easy to get lost in the shuffle.

Pros

Well known brands, viewed by outsiders as a top tier company.

Cons

Poor communication internally and constantly changing priorities and strategies make it a tough place to succeed. They recently restructured in Canada, eliminating over 80% of the positions and creating new jobs. The net was a 30% reduction in staff. This happens everywhere and is never fun but sometimes is necessary. But they handled it VERY poorly, downgraded (hence reducing pay) almost all the positions and changing the titles so no one could figure out if they wanted to stay or why. They even forgot to interview some people for the positions they applied for after their original job was eliminated. Disappointing. As a result, many people left unwillingly while others left because they did not accept the new downgraded job they were offered. This seems to have surprised them as they now have many vacant jobs and are using head hunters to try to fill them. I feel sorry for my friends that are still there, it's not a fun place to work.

Pros

lary and Benefits were great, lots of perks working at a beer company. Many of my coworkers were great people to work with.

Cons

This company cares more about diversity than it does about performance when it comes to promotion. If you a white middle aged male don't look to get promoted. I'm not a racist by any means but a company should look at your performance not just your race or gender when promoting people. One more thing to look at, if your just graduating you'll move up really fast and bypass everyone that’s been there for many years.
