Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

Procter & Gamble was a solid foundation for my career, as I began working for them after graduating. The company supports women and as an engineer, I felt empowered even early in my time here. Promoting from within is very common. My reason for leaving was geographic preference, and felt the company takes good care of its employees through benefits, mentoring, and fair policies.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

Company fosters a communal support network and I felt respected even as a newer member of the team.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

Solid principles, strong integrity and many people have chosen to stay as long-term career choice.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

Generally yes, for an entry level or low seniority person. I would not recommend this company for a higher level individuals. People that are at or near to the highest level of a specific technology, for example. This is primarily because the company's HR department has been adding in additional companies that are NOT comparable to P&G, so that they can reduce the salary structure of the organization. Further, the last 5 or 6 years, the company is not even providing cost of living increases. I know people who have not received any salary increase in 5 years, even people in the highest position for that technology for the company.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

The company culture is to promote from within, which is not always the best approach because sometimes you need a different perspective to change direction within a company. P&G is known to be an excellent Marketing company. The fact is, the company has some segments that are very good to excellent (e.g., Tide, Cascade) and others that are horrible (e.g., Gillette and Old Spice). P&G has actually brought down Gillette's value share from 79% to about 63% globally and reduced its profitability. P&G could also save considerable money by laying off the majority of their Marketing staff and using Madison Avenue type companies that do credible market analysis and develop the pitches, and to use a small contingent of highly capable internal marketers to determine what will sell and to chose the best marketing campaign/pitch. Additionally, senior management seems to be completely unaware of upstart companies, e.g., Dollar Shave Club and Harry's; that they could have purchased years earlier for a song. The missteps of senior management are considerable. I hope that David Taylor can turn it around for P&G.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

If you are a higher end resource, your chance of getting a cost of living adjustment COLA are poor as explained previously. Additionally, if you were an acquisition company, your chances of promotion are low, and your pension and medical benefits are a fraction of what you were promised in your original company. These were deals made by senior executives that paid the outgoing senior leadership of the acquired company excessive severance packages to rape the middle management and workers of the acquired company.

Employee - Manager / Senior Manager

It's a good place to work, a great experience working in a complex organizations which led the FMCG business. P&G's culture was strong and relied on getting the best people after graduation, nurture them, teach them to get their way to management and executive roles. There was little space for managers, senior managers, executives coming from outside (i.e. joined P&G after an acquisition)
