      Pros

      The people are great, the pay is okay, if you can get a job assignment on a good project with a good boss it can be a really good place to work.

      Cons

      Not many good job assignments or good bosses, the company has focused on cost savings to the point were innovation is on the decline, sales growth has slowed and the company is trying to find it's way...with more cost savings.

      Great but business process change is necessary to remain competitive & needs senior leadership to own/drive

      Pros

      People are respectful and managers generally treat employees well. Colgate is a well oiled machine with solid results. Opportunity to move internationally. Leaders are competent & thoughtful. An environment which does not make employees insecure.

      Cons

      Can be conservative at times. Not many Asians at top management globally though that is changing. Many senior employees who will not leave company thus blocking opportunities for people reporting to them.
