Pluspunten
I have progressed well through the organization. They believe in promoting from within and they offer a lot of training to qualified people (Six Sigma belts, etc). The money is average or higher (from what I have seen). If you are analytical, you are valuable. Fringe benefits are top notch. VIP for everything.
Minpunten
There is no work / life balance. This is an M&A firm owning a brewery. Result: bottom line is more important than people or product. Consistent pressure on sales team against competing and conflicting performance measures. Little to no bonus, though variable pay is touted as one of the best parts of the company. Youth coming into organization has little-to-no passion. This impacts the morale of the valuable tenured employees. Constant need to be aligned with the culture stands out as #1 most-valuable attribute - regardless of capability. Breeds a company of "yes" men and woman and doesn't create open discussion for progress. Close-minded and non-empathetic. Communication between most levels of leadership and the field has completely broken down. Wholesalers have lost faith due to regular shipping / logistics issues and continued price increases on products that already have volume challenges.
