      I worked at Philip Morris USA full-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      Direct supervisors were good to me, left me alone to do my job.

      Cons

      It's a tobacco factory so it's loud and dusty. Most mid-level mangers were full of themselves, some arrogant. Didn't listen. I could not effect change for the better. I worked there until I found something better, six months, and happily left.

      Advice to Management

      Provide professional training for your managers. Teach them empathy and to think outside the box. I am not a snowflake or a piece of meat. I am simply a hard worker who appreciates efficiency and a show of appreciation now and then.

      Pros

      Good Pay. Steady employment. Lots of over time

      Cons

      Although the pay is good it is not the premier place it once was. There are companies out there that are equal in pay. The benefit base has been eroding away in the past 12 years. The term industry standard is used to chisel away at what once was. There was a time not that long ago PM was a leader in standards and excelled. Not anymore.

      Advice to Management

      might not want to maintain "Industry Standards"

      Pros

      Great starting salary out of college especially in states where cost of living is low. Good training for advancement.

      Cons

      Salaries were the same to start in all states. Only promote within your region. They like to move you out of state when you get promoted so you work is your only focus.

      Advice to Management

      Help employees live where they want even if they means moving to different regions.
