      I worked at Roll Global full-time

      Pros

      Great company, great products, great location. Very good benefits and competitive pay. Great, healthy cafeteria.

      Cons

      Not too many cons to list. The company treats its employees well as long as you are a good performer.

      Pros

      Benefits were pretty good and ample time off, 3 weeks vacation to start.

      Cons

      Too many good, hardworking employees leave. Unfortunate, they could have gone far in the company had they just been treated fairly. Witnessed a lot of backstabbing, managers seem to look out for themselves, not their direct reports.

      Advice to Management

      Stand up for your employees, provide positive feedback every now and again.

      Not going to bother

      Pros

      Great brands. If you end up working for the right department there, you can secure a great job with great benefits and a decent work life balance. If you have children, it makes it easier to set those boundaries then if you are single. The company is involved in many wonderful philanthropic initiatives.

      Cons

      If you do not end up in the right department, you could end up burning the midnight oil for your entire stay. Set clear boundaries. The company is involved in many wonderful philanthropic initiatives, although their involvement is not altruistic. Roll is a sunny place for shady people.

      Advice to Management

      Obey the laws when it comes to hiring and firing. You cannot squeeze blood from a stone. 16 hour days doesn't increase productivity, the same amount of work is done, the rest is wasted.

      Pros

      Strategy group is a great place to start within the company. Great opportunities to directly provide help to business leaders on their toughest issues. Also, you have the potential to eventually take on more responsibility than you may deserve as a P&L owner.

      Cons

      Know what you want when you come in - otherwise you might get lost in the shuffle

      Advice to Management

      Reconsider compensation to continue attaining top talent

      Pros

      Great benefits & pays well
      Smart, hard working people
      Exciting environment & great products

      Cons

      Owners and the culture they create - you must agree or you risk being fired on the spot. Certainly never will be promoted if you disagree or argue with them - and they tell you that straight out. So everyone does what they think the owners want, and no one will tell them if they disagrees with their decisions. No one has any real power except the owners and the owners are constantly saying how they know the company will fall apart when they die - says they have a lot of faith in their executive staff, doesn't it?
      Unreasonable timelines - fast-paced is one thing, but this is ridiculous. Most folks don't last more than a year here. You either are fired or you move on before you burn out.

      Advice to Management

      Its all been said already, and they won't listen to it - bc they can't do anything about it. No one is going to tell the owners they need to create a better culture and value their employees more.

      Pros

      If you like working with smart people and thrive in a fast paced environment this is your place!

      Cons

      If you expect to be treated fairly or recognized for your efforts this is probably not your place

      Advice to Management

      It's all already been said, and it's all true...Management probably won't change here so set your expectations accordingly.
