Pros

Really good working hours, broad range of good benefits, lots of really friendly people in the office, not very cliquey. Very international office, bonus and free share scheme even for graduates

Cons

Range of intelligence levels, I wouldnt say you're working with top talent all the time. The bar for graduates is low, the program feels a bit burdensome. If you're relatively switched on the work is very straightforward, not super engaging. Large company innefficiency, finance and legal approval drag out timelines, whilst the scale of the company means processes take ages given the number of teams/agencies involved.

Pros

- Complete autonomy with schedule which provides for a nice balance between work and personal life - Impact people who are trying to grow their careers - Company car and free* gas is pretty nice

Cons

- Autonomy & freedom does leave time where you have to be self-motivated to keep going and push forward

Pros

Very strong compensation package, lots of very nice genuine people on the Reynolds US side

Cons

Toxic, politically charged environment, cliques of people each trying to place their own people in roles. A singular mis-trust and dislike of "outside" people who are brought in to move the company forward but the existing people who have worked there for years and years are all trying to protect and sustain their own roles and their own cliques. All show and pretty presentations but no meaningful, meaty strategy
