      Pros

      Colgate Palmolive is one of the most multinational companies in the world, and offices exist in many, many different countries. With strong performance, Colgate is a good company to develop an international management career. People that work in the company are generally very nice. Within such a large company, there are always politics but in general, most people including management, are very approachable. The pay and benefits are comparable to most other CPG companies. If you need to raise a family, Kansas is an inexpensive place to do that.

      Cons

      Conservative and bureaucratic. Management by consensus is a common practise, making it difficult to implement changes quickly.

      Pros

      Excellent financial track record, very stable. Strong global coverage and focus. Very focused on a few product categories. With a few minor exceptions the company really walks its talk when it comes to values and managing with respect. Excellent opportunities for professional development with a global career. Excellent people and company culture - very open, team based, truly global

      Cons

      Culture is quite conservative and consensus based, which at times limits abilities to try new things and limits risk taking. Some opportunities to be more innovative and push the boundaries.
