Pros

Amazing brands. Great employees. Great global vision. You will get great foundation from formal training.

Cons

Management over last few years has beaten any remaining spirit out of you. Sr execs in Canada making short term reactionary decisions. Say they want open culture, but don't trust them, they don't actually want you opinion unless you agree.

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.
