Pros

The company has the most amazing brands.

Cons

Lots of talk about diversity but it doesn't happen in reality. Push for certain ethnicity rather than for the right talent . Globally its all about saving cents rather than investing in people. The former CEO was so much more inspiring. Diageo goes on restructure every 3 months - employees are tired of worry about their job and the instability

Great products, great experience, great redundancy terms.

Poor management; constant restructuring; a lot of free loaders escape notice whilst hard workers are not recognised for their efforts. Poor rates of pay.
