Pros

Global company with fantastic brands and lots of career opportunities for the right people. Well paying and provides a good benefits package. Supports flexible working depending on role and boss.

Cons

Culture is changing and the company is becoming much more corporate and performance focused. Too many re-organisations and there were extensive lay-offs in 2014. Becoming very short term focused.

Pros

Pay & Benefits are wonderful

Cons

Unrealistic expectations towards employees Insurance benefits *Managers* are composed of front-line production leads and those who may oversee or supervise.* The work-life balance is severely lacking, and there are biased managers who add negative connotations to peers' actions without any solid evidence or knowledge. Furthermore, these managers often lack technical expertise regarding machinery and engage in excessive micromanagement of employees. The workplace lacks diversity as defined, and the hiring representatives are typically the same floor leads that micromanage peers creating unfair hiring process at Diageo. Many individuals who have encountered the corrupt practices lead reps in previous jobs are frequently denied opportunities.
