Pros

Great pay and benefits. The culture is outstanding. You have freedom to share opinions. Work life balance is respected.

Cons

Senior leadership has the desire to diversify revenue outside of Cigarettes and into newer tobacco categories but they absolutely can't figure out how to do it. They are not just failing in the vapor category, but they are failing repeatedly and spectacularly in historic examples of bad business decisions. And since they can't grow revenue, they are offshoring good paying white collar jobs to India. The employees got 3% raises, but senior leadership received 7%-13% raises despite failing miserably with several vapor acquisitions and needing to pay for their failures with US job reductions.

Pros

Great pay and benefits. Most jobs have great work/life balance.

Cons

Management invested heavily in data science, Now when senior leaders make their decisions based on gut feelings, they can say that they "used data to make the decision." What they really mean is that they looked at the data and did what they wanted anyway.
