Pros

None. Run away fast.

Cons

Avoid this Company. Zero work life balance. Purchasing-Admin will prove this beyond a shadow of doubt. Management literally runs around departments asking question that a department holds zero authority over. No Upper Management Plan ever shared. Just get it done and figure out--then get blamed when work not done.

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
