Pros

Strong and compelling vision articluated clearly by senior management. First class agility in all aspects of the business. Huge focus on individual ownership & contribution - if you peform well you are rewarded in turn. Unique culture of competitive and caring people. Internal opportunities for new roles or relocation are frequent and well supported.

Cons

Pace and change doesn't suit everyone. Expectations to deliver, outperform and win is relentless. Internal alignment and integration of sales, marketing and channel management needs improvement.

Pros

I read the Glassdoor reviews almost 3.5 years ago before joining RB. Knowing no company is perfect I was willing to take on the extra responsibility (and maybe lack of process/balance) to enjoy a dynamic, non-bureaucratic, and results oriented global organization. That is exactly what I got. Two countries and three roles later I've been stretched as individual, added value back to the organization, and worked with some great people.

Cons

Being dynamic sometimes means being reactive. It's a double edge sword. It's a competitive advantage in terms of reacting to competitor and consumer needs, but as an employee (especially one that likes to be organized and in control) you can find it hard to plan and execute in the more formal sense. You need be comfortable with ambiguity and quick decision making.

Pros

Great products to work on which enhance one's skill sets and understanding of the domain. High industry standards are set and met. Focus on trying to achieve the best that each individual can do.

Cons

However, if each individual get the best out of himself/herself does not guarantee the company achieves the targets. Team work is a must. Lack of team ethics and a political minefield. Even individuals within the same team do not know why something is being done. You just do your bit as you are asked to. Ultimately you get paid well but you don't enjoy your job.
