Business outlook
Pros
Interesting locations, great products, wonderful history, iconic brands. When things are going well it's a wonderful place to work, if somewhat stressful due to top down pressure for numbers (which is normal...)
Cons
Becoming part of the larger parent company has hindered the entrepreneurial methods of the company. Constant restructures and high staff turnover has meant that the company loses opportunities to expand because they are often chasing their own core business down instead of pursuing new opportunities.
