      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Brand Strength - such as Johnnie Walker , Ciroc , Vat69,Smirnoff , Guinness. The organisation really has great brands and that's what gives DIAGEO an edge over all. They encash on their brand value which is good.

      Cons

      Too much dependance on the brand strength and too low dependance or trust on its team. Career Progression is not there. Lack of Trainings. Lack of Vision for employee retention policies..

      Employee experience is very dependent upon line manager. Line managers vary greatly, but mentors are readily available.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      High company standards for marketing responsibly to consumers. Work/life balance & scheduling flexibility. Great focus on getting your work done and not so much about when. Truly global, opportunity to learn about other regions and meet those who have your role in those regions.

      Cons

      There is a strong people agenda, but it is not followed consistently by all line managers. HR is there to support the line manager & company, and the employee doesn't get support to make sure performance reviews, stakeholder feedback & stack-ranking processes are consistent. Little input to annual performance goals; very top-down. Very performance driven culture (which can also be good) If you hit your numbers, you get a good review, usually.
