Pros

Work life balance. You can pretty much come and go as you please as long as your “work gets done”

Cons

Many consumers don’t want and don’t trust big brands, unfortunately thats mostly all this company has....and the emerging brands in the industry just don’t fit the margin profile to work for big food companies

Pros

Always busy with challenging work.

Cons

Office politics slows things down, seems like some of the work is about checking a box and not about really creating value or improved processes.
