Unforgettable experience is multinational company.

Pros

Establish company were people would like to be. A place that we think a great place to settle down. Good bonus payout to employee.

Cons

Environment and culture is different. Not everyone is ready. The culture has been set in a way where if you unable to adapt you don't feel belong. Need to be independent. No training will be provided, all is hands on. HR does not playing vital role in helping the staff. From my experience such a big company but having the worst HR ever. All your future is depending to your line manager. If you screw up or you do not have good relationship with the line manager just forget staying long in the company.

Highly political and competitive

Business Outlook

Pros

Very international, good salary and benefits, good location.

Cons

Friendly atmosphere on the outset but one soon realises that the culture is very political and competitive. Some pretentious employees who have it too comfortable and never leave so staff turnover too low which brings in no new blood and ideas. Everyone is extremely grade conscious which determines your worth in the company.

Great development at junior/mid career, but not good career progression opportunities when reaching a senior level.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Very structured development and training opportunities - Good international assignments and project opportunities - Compensation is great, specially if you go on being mobile - Working environment is great at end markets. Not the case at regional level or at globe house. - Quality of employees is top: well educated, good experience, very results oriented leaders and pragmatic

Cons

- If you are not mobile, BAT does not have a long term career for you - Politics are strong in headquarters and you need to know people and "be visible" in order to get promoted - Not very critical in terms of the way we do things. Always looking within BAT, rather than outside best practices. - Leaders manage upwards and most of the time do not look after their people. - Senior leaders have big egos and are not willing to listen to employees - Innovation is NOT a BAT competence. Strategies are defined "conceptually innovative" but hardly ever implemented to innovation levels compared to other strong corporations. Innovation is in the growth agenda, but innovation does not drive the whole organization model shape.
