Pros

Has a good Giving and charity culture

Cons

SEAPAC management is deeply flawed- Its MD lacks leadership skills, competent business skills and is incapable of fostering a cohesive team. Functional teams are disorganized and struggle to work together inter/intra teams- Their leaders lead with authority rather than skills or wisdom, they are not trained for their roles. The outrageously high turnover rate (many strive to leave after hitting 1 year) and lack of role continuity are astonishing and reflect poorly on higher and global management, who have ignored these issues for years, relying solely on the strong sales of the Macallan brand to showcase company performance. New joiners (executive-managerial rankings) should be prepared for an unwelcoming environment and culture. The company perceive themselves to be on par with global MNC levels, but in reality, they have a toxic local SME management style and culture.

Pros

Edrington is a really true caring company of their employees by understanding their needs and supporting them when needed. During my tenure there (5.5 years) I had the opportunity to meet with great leaders. The products are also fantastic, and the Giving More culture resonated a lot with my own personal beliefs.

Cons

It is a flat organization, so it becomes difficult to achieve a higher position in general. However, the company gives other ways to compensate this by giving you stretch assignments or the opportunity to expand your role when needed.
