Pros

Career progression, variety, inclusion, personal growth, and beyond are key strengths.

Cons

Similar to other corporate giants, the pace of innovation can be very slow, and is rarely bleeding edge. Fast Follower is a common turn thrown around and strived towards, but rarely achieved. 2010-2020 were particularly downward trending years in terms of forward momentum created by management and org structure. Too frequent re-orgs, motivated by cost cutting and leadership shake-ups, have taken a grave toll.

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.
