Pros

Great place to learn, salaries are OK

Cons

Your career path is defined for next 10-15 years. The company is stable, but is not for everybody. After initial assessment, it is difficult to get promoted quickly, meaning if your initial assessment results place you at the level below manager, it is next to impossible to get to a manager level after that. P&G is very rigid in terms of possibility to change the functions. It is also very process-driven which means that it takes forever to have anything done in the company

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
