Pros

Prior to the merger with InBev, Anheuser-Busch was a great place to work. It provided excellent benefits and compensation. Training was offered to help advance your career. Employees took pride in the heritage of the company and it's high-quality products. The company always kept focused on the impacts to the communities and the environment in which they worked. Employees were proud to say they worked for Anheuser-Busch.

Cons

The old Anheuser-Busch was a highly political organization. It was often "who you knew" versus "what you knew" when promotions were decided. There was a fear of speaking your mind if it went against what management was saying or believing. The company was risk-aversive and did not allow folks to make mistakes.

Pros

Free beer and decent salary

Cons

They have completely expunged meritocracy from their culture and replaced it with DEI. Anyone who is reading this, I would highly encourage you to read Anson Frericks book “The Last Call for Bud Light.” From diversity dashboards to racist rhetoric, it is a toxic culture from top to bottom. Management pretends like they want feedback and then does nothing when they receive it. Stay away.
