Pros

BAT is presint in almost all countries of the world. It is possible to do a multinational career. Pay is relatively better, though it is getting more squeeze.

Cons

Difficult to get promoted if not from graduate scheme. Promotions depend mostly on who you know and subjective one-two interactions with senior management - probably this is same in any other big organization.

Pros

Very strong compensation package, lots of very nice genuine people on the Reynolds US side

Cons

Toxic, politically charged environment, cliques of people each trying to place their own people in roles. A singular mis-trust and dislike of "outside" people who are brought in to move the company forward but the existing people who have worked there for years and years are all trying to protect and sustain their own roles and their own cliques. All show and pretty presentations but no meaningful, meaty strategy
