Pros

Exciting and fulfilling work, multiple career opportunities, amazing health care insurance.

Cons

Company drowning in internal politics, affecting career moves, culture motivation. Company lacks focus and direction due to the many brands carried in portfolio to the extent that cannibalisation exists within Diageo brands.
