Pros

Very forward thinking regarding human rights and sustainability Very charitable oriented Strongly support work life balance Excellent benefits package Fair salary. Not the best in the business but stability and benefits make up for this. Very collaborative environment Allow & encourage creative out of the box thinking Best products on the market in most categories

Cons

Most opportunities for advancement require relocation to Lisle. Overcommunicate on some things, undercommunicate on others Being part of a multinational compels change for the sake of compliance with no real advantages in some cases. Bonus program is never constant and is becoming more difficult to attain. Sometimes we don't know criteria until final month of bonus period.
