Edrington Reviews

Pros

Charitable giving Easy going A lot of mediocre performers so your job is never at risk Benefits are good - if you want kids. Single or non-family oriented employees don’t get much. Get half day Fridays

Cons

Executive team is really slow moving, no big ideas or inspiration to drive the business Upper management is narrow minded and slows the global business down Wrong people hired in critical roles just because they have been in the company Poor pay, 50th percentile benchmarking when competitors are at 75th D&I agenda purely gender based, no other diversity/inclusion targeted

Pros

Working with good brands so good experience

Cons

Can lack structure and sometimes communication

Pros

get two days off a week sometimes even get lunch breaks - not always, that would be silly

Cons

pretentious, pompous management clique environment who don't accept differences in people racist & homophobic incidents

Pros

Exciting truly international & growing organisation - plenty of opportunities for career development Relatively flat structure, encourages innovation and a great environment for self-starters Inclusive and supportive culture First class pay and benefits package Takes the organisation's role in society very seriously - contributes directly and indirectly to hundreds of good causes worldwide and encourages employees to play an active role in their communities

Cons

Hard to be critical of any specific part of the organisation. I look back very fondly on my time with Edrington and wish them and my ex-colleagues all the very best success in the future.

Pros

Lots of good benefits such as health insurance and good holiday allowance and link with Robertson Trust allows staff to get money for charities.

Cons

Unfortunately as a drinks company they have a legal obligation to promote responsible drinking and have an apparently compulsory 'code of conduct' which says all staff have to do so but happily turn a blind eye when staff publicly do the opposite at company social events.
