Rothmans, Benson & Hedges Reviews

Pros

Great advantages and working conditions

Cons

The company is shrinking a lot of interesting positions

Pros

Work is complex and challenging

Cons

Lots of politics and poor leadership

Pros

Pay, trips, bonus (for now).

Cons

Recent stress leaves, firings and a mass exodus of office staff basically sums up a toxic environment. Everyone is miserable to show up for work and feel like they can be let go at any moment. All of this stemming from a flawed vision and even poorer execution of a new product that has virtually zero footprint in the market and is getting outsmarted by the competition at every turn.

Advice to Management

Reassess the future and implement strategies that work!

Pros

Great work environment, leadership style management (in some cases)

Cons

Take to long to respond back to requests

Pros

Steady income and health benefits

Cons

Some supervisors just "accessory" only, they don't know how to do the real work. They just busy from one meeting to another meeting. If come to the real work, they are using term "delegate" to dump all the works they don't know how to solve it to their sub-ordinates because they think they can, they using the term "projects". The sub-ordinates then overwhelm with the workload and if the sub-ordinates are not successfully solve that "projects" being dump to them in timely manner on top of their regular work tasks, then the supervisors using that excuses and put it on the MAP (job performance platform) as the way they threaten the sub-ordinates. Too many office politics. Especially with new women directors coming, the culture is shifted to the worse. Culture of fears, lip service talks, hypocrite created and sprouting in every department. They fired who ever they thought in "opposite" directions with them.

Advice to Management

"Clean up" your useless, not capable supervisors and managers. They are just liability without giving any good impact for the employees, sub-ordinates and the company overall. Cut all the hypocrisy coming from those new women directors.

Pros

Excellent salary, trips, technology, experience, work environment

Cons

Money can not buy your soul. Whatever you do, your actions are complicit in killing consumers of the product you sell, market, and distribute.

Pros

Good work environment -hardware. Currently has a Great CEO.

Cons

No development for young ppl because seniors positions are reserved by the Mother Company PMI. Middle level managers are not ambitious and very carefully to keep their job, and eliminate any internal or external competitors.

Advice to Management

open the space for promotion of excellent employees. A lot of staff feel no future career development inside the company

Pros

All the pros only sound nice in the beginning

Cons

non stop work piling up, way too many emails, company politics, no work life balance, overall day to day job duties is overwhelming and mentally tiring. Not worth the pay
