Pros

Very exciting market segment and Diageo have fantastic brands in the portfolio Openness to change and ideas - empowered employees Good benefits and market rate salaries Leadership team and Executive are visible. it's not a flat structure but it is completely feasible for you to meet and interact wiht senior leadership

Cons

In the past, Diageo had a very good (and deserved) reputation for world-class marketing, however, the leadership focus has changed to immediate sales results, so brand building has been sidelined. As with many large corporations, Diageo is very slow to move or respond to new threats of opportunities. Company values have skewed a bit and there is less respect being shown, which comes with the creep towards a cut-throat culture that's become more political

Pros

If you are a young professional with not much experience, love drinking cool aid and like working with out order nor processes this company is for you.

Cons

Immature executives that believe they are the best, lack leadership and don't respect you enough to listen what you have to say (they know it all, even what you are about to say) turn over is around 40%. They don't respect their people, people are just a tool to their means, no workalike balance and no respect for personal life neither
