Pros
The best resasons to work for Procter & Gamble are the fantastic brands. Because Procter & gamble is so large there is a tremendous amount of leverage with the customer. Compensation is also relatively strong.
Cons
The largest downside of working at Procter & Gamble is the size of the company creating enormous amounts of bureaucracy and an inflexibility in order to react to market demands. Unrealistic goals combined with a unwaivering reliance on outdated metrics create a difficult work environment. Work & Life Balance are wholly ignored and workloads are unreasonable. The secretive nature of the company also creates a culture of fear and suspicion.
