Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of training Lots of Travel Cash Rich Company Remuneration and Benefits

Cons

It's a tobacco company, you need to be prepared for that Culture begins to lose it's 'niceness' once you try and move up the ladder as the higher grade pay packages are superior to others in the corporate world but require a lot of brown nosing to get in.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good perks, nights out etc (but not a fair trade for your job becoming unbearable) Good severance package

Cons

Don't understand the vaping market or consumers Too much ego/vanity tied up in Vype to invest elsewhere Good and hardworking staff run into the ground Redundancy process shambolic, still awaiting answers almost a month after finishing with emails being ignored or the buck passed if you do get a response Nobody takes responsibility Too large to be streamlined or agile, incredibly slow to get anything done Those who throw others under the bus get ahead, even if incompetent The more you do the more is expected of you but with staff levels slashed, not sustainable No support from management Profit over people Price loyal customers on fixed incomes out of using the products, used Brexit as an excuse when we were told by senior management it was purely to make more profit and costs hadn't increased.
