Pros

Great place to start your career & learn best international business practices! You get to meet many true professionals, open-minded & competitive. I started as a Management trainee & held various jobs in different locations. You fall in love with offices, brands, practices & people, you get to experience true unity & diversity at the same time. Competitive salaries & benefits, social guarantees & continuous development opportunities make you stay loyal & feel safe in our changing environment.

Cons

As every big company lot's of hard work is required from you to grow & become a top manager. Bureaucracy is still a stumbling block for every great idea. And your personal time will be challenged by overwhelming duties.

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
