Pros

Global brand reputation, nice colleagues. Not a lot to share on pro side.

Cons

Too many to list but mostly petty micromanaging company of control freaks. Lower pay than market. Poor bonus potential if you can call it that & no room to advance. Management are incompetent cowards.

Pros

- Benefits and compensation can be good if you avoid falling into a forced ranking nightmare - It is a highly stable and reliable company - Increasing focus on corporate responsibility and community investment

Cons

- The forced ranking system whereby each unit must rank some of its team low and cut them out of rewards can hinder or totally kill the collaborative spirit, puts managers in a difficult spot, and is counterproductive - There is NO effort to help you develop or find new positions in the company - if they need to reduce headcount in one area, they just get rid of you without any thought to trying to find you something else first (I've seen very few exceptions to this in my 13 years with them)
