Pros

Great insight regarding how the logistics operation works, customer service interaction within the organization, local transportation management in the country and inventory analysis.

Cons

Office is located in a very populated geographic area so sometimes getting there can be quite complicated. Aroud 50,000 within 1 square kilometer from where the offices are located.

Pros

Extremely stable, no-surprises performance. Interesting, rewarding exchange with other geographies. Robust reputation and Brands.

Cons

Company is extremely self-centered, has a very low interest in preempting Competiton and is slow to react. Culture runs deep, and challenging the Status Quo is not welcome; coming into Colgate at a level beyond middle management is often frustrating as bringing in ideas from previous experience is not valued above "the way it's always been done". Compensation is sub-par, and when a promotion happens, raises are also inferior to external offers.

Pros

You have a real opportunity to build a career Strong corporate culture which is based on real respect of each other A lot of training and development programms

Cons

If you are making a career inside the company, be ready that your salary could be below the market Good atmosphere within the company does not allow to identify what you are doing wrong and what is stoping your further career growth As in every company your growth is based on your relationship, not on your performance as a professional
