Pros

great brand porfolio, ok salary, good benefits, looks good on resume working for market leader.

Cons

incompetent management; the analysts seem to know more than the managers/directors unethical business practices highly political, the hard workers are not recognized instead all the work gets dumped on you and you're put on the black list while the ones that don't do any work and just play "office politics" get promoted. Not very encouraging. constant lay offs; they can't seem to figure out that they're strategy is especially since the competition is catching up high in favoritism they don't practice what they preach and don't stand for the companies values Lack of smart people

Pros

Pay & Benefits are wonderful

Cons

Unrealistic expectations towards employees Insurance benefits *Managers* are composed of front-line production leads and those who may oversee or supervise.* The work-life balance is severely lacking, and there are biased managers who add negative connotations to peers' actions without any solid evidence or knowledge. Furthermore, these managers often lack technical expertise regarding machinery and engage in excessive micromanagement of employees. The workplace lacks diversity as defined, and the hiring representatives are typically the same floor leads that micromanage peers creating unfair hiring process at Diageo. Many individuals who have encountered the corrupt practices lead reps in previous jobs are frequently denied opportunities.
