Pros

The work culture and people are amazing. P&G invests a lot of money to develop all their employees to become great leaders because they are a promote from within company. All senior leadership started out from the bottom. The company strives very hard to make money and does a great job doing so. That is why P&G is always in everyone's stock portfolio. You do not have to worry about being hurt by recessions or the company ever going under. There is tremendous job security within R&D.

Cons

You are working on consumer products - toilet paper, shavers, laundry detergent. You need to be wary of spending the rest of your life improving non-glamorous products. Don't get me wrong, there is tremendous innovation behind all P&G products and you will be challenged.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
