Pros

Incredible brands. Exceptional training opportunities and lots of freedom to succeed. A fun and enjoyable group of people to work with, and they are a bright bunch.

Cons

Typical internal politics as anyone can expect from a large global company. They are cutting back on resources as well so a lot more work is put on the current teams plate.

Pros

Pay & Benefits are wonderful

Cons

Unrealistic expectations towards employees Insurance benefits *Managers* are composed of front-line production leads and those who may oversee or supervise.* The work-life balance is severely lacking, and there are biased managers who add negative connotations to peers' actions without any solid evidence or knowledge. Furthermore, these managers often lack technical expertise regarding machinery and engage in excessive micromanagement of employees. The workplace lacks diversity as defined, and the hiring representatives are typically the same floor leads that micromanage peers creating unfair hiring process at Diageo. Many individuals who have encountered the corrupt practices lead reps in previous jobs are frequently denied opportunities.
