Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
Best place to learn and develop skills that can be utilized throughout career. Very smart and bright people with clear corporate mission and goals.
Employee - Entry / Intern
P&G is a fantastic school. Whether you are a trainee or an employee, the same level of commitment is expected from you (it is the amount of work that varies, with less work assigned to entry level people, but the responsibility one is expected to have over one's work is pretty much the same). The company has incredibly meticulous methodologies and techniques to approach and solve business problems, be it in marketing, in sales, in market research. So no matter if you stay on or move to another company later, what you learn at P&G stays with you and positively changes the way you work.
Employee - Entry / Intern
You are empowered to do your work. There is a fast pace and the priorities are usually very clear. You do get the resources you need in order to be able to deliver on your objectives.
Employee - Entry / Intern
You are given space to do things your way, as long as you do not break company rules and policies, but you must deliver. You own your projects and you are expected to be fully committed to making them happen.
Employee - Analyst / Associate / Consultant
Very demanding, but also very rewarding. People get recognition for their achievements
Employee - Analyst / Associate / Consultant
Friendly, dynamic, open minded

Very demanding type of environment.

What is on the inside is not what it appears on the outside.
Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
P&G used to be a great company to work for. Now it unfortunately rife with strife and internal politics. They no longer reward hard work & ethics, its more about "Who you know" - whereby the "Old timers" invariably get ahead.
Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
Whats Good: Very open & inclusive culture. One of the few companies where HR genuinely seems to care about employee welfare. Also, generally bright and "good"people working there. Whats Bad: Given its "promote from within" philosophy, there is a huge amount of "Group Think" and inbreeding of ideas. This can lead to non-acceptance of new ways of working, getting stuck in the "proper" process rather than focusing on results. I also saw examples of the "Peter Principle" - whereby people got promoted to senior levels based on previous performance but they weren't able to perform well in the more senior role.
Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
When I had joined P&G, It used to be a fabulous training ground for marketers - their focus on learning & developing employees, and also giving an opportunity to work on big projects was great. It also used to be very well respected and the work experience in P&G used to be a "Big Cheque you can cash out" in other companies. However, by 2014, I found that their modus operandi got reduced to "Painting By the Numbers" - there was no "Heart" left in work being done, it was all a bit mechanical and process driven. I believe this is what has led to their falling behind key competitors on innovations and marketing.
Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
The IT organization is out of touch with the needs of the company. They do not reward doing what is right for the company
Employee - Manager / Senior Manager
Peers were great but leadership was poor
Employee - Director
P&G is focussed on processes versus results, ruled by a myriad of centers of excellence and HR policies. Worst place to be for intrapreneurs.
Employee - Director
Monoculture = proctoids. According to leading executive search firms, more than 80% of them fail in their first role outside of the company, as they only recruit their colleagues to form colonies, and operate by the books and processes of P&G
Employee - Director
If you are a business person / Entrepreneur, you will waste your time and be worn out by processes and Corporate politics.
