Pros

Good holiday entitlement, good bonuses

Cons

HR is for the company not for you. Discriminated against. Who you know not what you know for progression. Over values those that shout and promote brand health (I.e representing pg at pride) and posting on their company social platforms - despite them being bad managers - rather than the good managers who prefer to do a good job.
