WTF is happening - Division Manager Reynolds American Employee Review

People were great, pay was great, they really wanted to help you learn and build professional skills

Ethics issues working for a company that makes harmful products

Great compensation package, some very nice, decent people, but counterbalanced by some complete lunatics

Extremely political and toxic environment, massive lack of diversity and especially now that they don't "need" to do it anymore, you can see true colors coming out. Advancement and performance is dependent on who you know. No meaningful feedback on how to improve and what actually needs to be done. A tendency to love bright shiny objects and pretty presentation decks, but no real meaningful strategy. And they do not seem to even know themselves what they want, which makes delivering at a high level very challenging. Current CEO is doing a good job I think but he has no idea of the layers of toxicity underneath. I also get a sense that current results are being propped up by people who are on the verge of retirement and will never find another job outside the industry - therefore trying to maximise the most they can out of the next few years with no view to what will happen 5 or 10 years down the road.
