Pros

I truly believe I have one of the best jobs in my peer group due to the opportunity I have to develop as a business leader while allowing for a good work/life balance. Since P&G is a top destination company and builds from within, I work with intelligent individuals who have developed a mastery of their business function. Working with and learning from these individuals allows me to improve my business acumen and apply my understanding to new situations. P&G's ability to enable collaboration and develop business leaders is seen by its strong brands, but also though the number of individuals that started success companies after leaving the organization. Other Pros: * Ethical Company * Fortune 500 Company: Global and Safe * Competitive Compensation and Profit Sharing Program * Ability to change functions

Cons

Due to the size of the organization and number of brands involved, it takes a long time and significant amount of analysis to make business decisions. This process can be frustrating at times when the project has been approved, but then resources are pulled due to needs in other businesses.

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
