Overview of the SNP role
Supply Network Planner (Current Employee), Amsterdam, Netherlands – May 30, 2013
Pros: spirit allocation, extra holidays, international environment, good atmosphere, fun, fast business pace, flexibility, ability to work from home
Cons: salary growth over time
I started my career at Diageo in August 2011 with a first supply chain job.
My rigorous backgrounds in engineering as well as my previous work experiences have given me the opportunity to not only strengthen my analytical and scientific reasoning skills but also to build strong relationships with stakeholders in an international environment.

My current – more... position in the European Planning Team has helped me understand the supply chain complexity within Diageo while learning the planning roles of the department.

I have been delivering weekly production plans for two production lines located in two different plants. I have a full vision of the supply network, taking into account market forecast, orders, demand and supply constraints, exceptions to the plan, inventory, customer service and product innovation.
The second aspect of the Diageo network planning is the supply management of a SMR market (South Africa). It gives in-market insights by doing strategic replenishment and working with demand and logistics to ensure OTIF delivery. – less

Only the best makes you better
Training/Event Coordinator (Former Employee), Toronto, ON – March 8, 2013
Pros: working with great people
Cons: trying to find time to relax
No day would be the same in this role, which was great, you never knew what was the next item you would need to manage.

Extensive travel, fast pace environment, working with great teams and managers, made this a fantastic role.

At times there was no life balance just work but the satisfaction of watching a great event that you had help to create was – more... worth the loss of personal time. – less

Great employer, HR function is not very good.
Data Analyst (Former Employee), Edinburgh, SCT – November 7, 2012
Pros: free product allowance, access to some nice company perks
Cons: hr function is not very helpful, does not approach situations with any uniqueness- everything is process-driven.
I worked for this company for 3.5 years and by far was one of the best employers I had. However I hit a snag which no longer allowed me to work and live in the United Kingdom, and the HR function was incredibly unhelpful in trying to assist me or help me with some of the personal situations in my life.

I would love to work for this company again despite – more... the shortcomings from HR. – less

Very nice place to work
Safety and Compliance Coordinator (Former Employee), Halethorpe, MD – April 18, 2013
My normal day at Diageo consisted of auditing the 6 production lines for any glass breaks, dirty cleaning items, and personal hygiene. I was on a 3 month contract, which was extended 6 months because of my performance. I was eventually let go as part of a plant wide layoff resulting in a decline from ~300 jobs to ~50

Very successful company,provides great opportunity for advancement.
Customer Service Coordinator and Clerical (Former Employee), Menlo Park, CA – March 12, 2013
Pros: annual inventory events with breakfast and lunch.
I was always happy to come to work, people in the warehouse was so friendly, helpful and respectful to others.
I learned many cultural values by associating with people that came from different countries.
I was fortunate to have worked with so many supportive management staff at Diageo Menlo Park Plant.
My co-workers were very understanding, always – more... ready to offer help when needed.
The hardest part for me was how to manage irate drivers when they arrived for pick up and product was not available due to warehouse issues.
The most enjoyable, when I completed all my assigned duties plus more before leaving work and start fresh the next day. – less

Unfortuntealy, there – more... were not any jobs open for me to apply to. – less

Micromanagement Hell
I need this now boy (Former Employee), North America – December 26, 2012
Pros: pay and benefits
Cons: work overload, way to many nonimportant reports
This company goes the extra mile to make anybody nonwhite and gay/bisexual feel important. There main goal is to get awards, one of the great places to work award or the green award or great place for ethnic groups award. Upper management is so disconnected with the man out on the floor doing the work. Management turnover is very high due to burnout – more... and work overload. Every management employee is out to make a name for themselves even if it means screwing something up. Very lacking in the common sense area this company is. Corporate!!! leave the sites alone and let them do their jobs!!!!! – less
