Pros

There are great growth opportunities, with very strong mentoring and management support for career guidance. Strong network of people, with comparatively minimal politicking. In Procter & Gamble, there is a lot of emphasis on building competencies and coaching. Management also encourages a lot for the employees to look not only at internal corporate trainings but also link with the industry best practice, talking with vendors and other best in class companies. There is also lots of importance placed on recognition and providing feedback to employees both in a one to one environment as well as in a bigger group for recognition.

Cons

Very strong will to succeed is embedded in culture, but alsocausing employees to struggle with work and life balance

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".
