Pros

Huge global structure, great brands to manage. Learn real Marketing with several sources of information and courses. Enhance your CV and make international carrer a possibility.

Cons

Not the best work life balance. Internal politics requires good negotiation skills to keep you on focus and make things happen. Career growth is not as fast as it was in the past. Too many processes, creating some bureaucracy that slow things down.

Pros

Great people, strong brands, and a lot of ownership. I’ve had opportunities to manage large spend portfolios, lead cross-functional projects, and work with teams across Supply Chain, Finance, Quality, and R&D. The company invests in development and provides exposure to senior leadership that can help accelerate your career.

Cons

Performance and rewards don’t always feel aligned. High performers can sometimes feel underappreciated, and career advancement can be slower than expected due to organizational complexity and internal politics. Decision-making can also take longer than it should because of the number of stakeholders involved.
