Pros

Have a breadth of leadership experiences across the different divisions as well as provides great training. Very much a culture of learning.

Cons

You will need to navigate the political matrix in order to progress to the next level. You will need to not only impress your boss and your boss' boss, but you will also need to impress other members of senior mgmt that would participate in your promotion review. So unless you have regular interaction with these other members of management, your boss will need to be very persuasive and lobby for your cause way in advance. Work life balance has also been declining over the last few years.

Pros

Great culture and truly amazing coworkers. Strong company history of success with iconic brands.

Cons

The company is going through a super tough season. Lots of jobs being moved offshore and it feels like nonstop restructuring / job loss. Job security feels very tenuous and morale is low.
