Pros

The people - there is a very strong community within the company and several of my colleagues are now friends of mine. The career advancement opportunities are very good, there is a clear career proposition and plenty of chances to prove yourself and to deliver real value and growth to the company. The work/life balance is excellent, managers are very good about letting you take time off/leave early if you need to. There are excellent opportunities to work abroad.

Cons

Compensation is claimed to be at a premium above market rate but isn't. Unilever can also be a bit 'soft' for some people.

Pros

Good experience and great people. Lot's to get involved in.

Cons

The core business don't take IT seriously they're just interested in getting it as cheap as possible. Way too many 3rd parties and the cheapest outsourcing vendors.
