Pros

passion for winning by all P&Gers, great mentors and onboarding programs to help get started. there is always a level of pride in the company since many from outside recognize that collectively, P&G has many great leaders in the making

Cons

ratings are still heavily political vs. reflection of actual performance. New hires are always mentored that life at P&G is a marathon and not a sprint. In GBS, typical promotions from first level to second takes 3 years - 3 years of relentlessly delivering beyond expectations with no rewards. We are consistently told we need to find something other than promotions to keep us going.

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".
