      Pros

      Great compensation Good working enviroment Respect The opportunity to be part of consumer goods industry

      Cons

      Too conservative Very hard to get a carrer path. Opportunities are not given to the best individuals. Not work/life balance for finance, IT, and other support areas. Poor workplace conditions for a company of this size. Some people work with minimal space and light conditions. Not easy to progress and you become and specialist in your process. Nothing new to learn

      Pros

      Good salary and benefits for higher positions. Good development plan. Opportunities to work abroad. Most of the times a very friendly environment.

      Cons

      Most of the employees have a old fashioned view of things and a closed mind. This could be due to the fact that a lot of people have been there since the plant started and most of the middle managers were founders of the plant. Very few young people, and some co-workers can be very unfriendy.
