Pros

Career advancement opportunities are plentiful, along with support for cross functional career endeavors. P&G also provides very rewarding assignments from early on in the career that build high levels of technical and leadership skills.

Cons

In engineering career promotions are not readily given compared to other functions in the company. For a new engineer it will take 4-7 years to advance to the next level. P&G promotes from within so this can prove to be a challenge in terms of career progression for an experienced hire.

Pros

Many intelligent people who are experts in their fields who are willing to help and provide advice (if they have time). Decent benefits and pay.

Cons

I mentioned time because many people are stretched and overworked. Work life balance is pretty bad and shows no signs of improvement. A lot of this can be attributed to near useless management. Every project is treated as absolute maximum priority but can still be dropped at a moment's notice. Work processes are horribly cumbersome and slow. Even small changes require many approvals but there are endless demands to "move faster".
