Je travaille chez Anheuser-Busch à plein temps (Pendant plus de 10 ans)
Avantages
I have been employed by Anheuser-Busch for almost 25 years and I could not be happier with my career. First of all, the culture is just right for me--casual, genuine, and results-driven. All of my colleagues are supportive and intelligent. It also helps that they all enjoy board games just as much as I do!! I recommend anyone interested in this industry or simply looking for wonderful experiences pursue a career at this company.
Inconvénients
Employee discounts at the campus restaurants should be higher!

Je travaille chez Anheuser-Busch à plein temps (Pendant plus de 3 ans)
Avantages
2 free cases of beer per month. Get to work on interesting projects. If you are Brazilian or part of the Global management trainee program, you will get promoted quickly.
Inconvénients
The company does not invest in its employees and treats them as an asset to be squeezed to the last drop in the same way that they squeeze vendors and physical assets.
You aren't given the tools you need to feel proud and motivated to work in a professional job. Real examples that it are hard to believe happen at a large, profitable company :
- Five year old Lenovo laptop installed with very old programs (Internet Explorer 7, Office 2007, etc). Their response to that is to allow you to bring in your own home device to use for work (without providing you any reimbursement for providing it)
- Inflexible and very low level budget travel policy for actual employees that doesn't have to be followed by senior executives (agencies paying for travel for more expensive hotels, using corporate jet). I have had to stay at smelly, dingy motels when traveling for work in order to abide by travel policies (Days Inn, Sleep Inn, Travelodge).
- Not properly staffing the teams. Even before the layoffs, open positions were deliberately left open and not even posted to save cash flow, so employees had to do the work of two or three people.
There has been an incredible amount of turnover in the marketing department over the last 12 months since new leadership was put in place, some involuntary but most voluntary. Despite the fact that most people are working the equivalent of two to three jobs, and work life balance is completely nonexistent, senior management is pushing on even more priorities. They are out of touch with employees as they barely interact with them, instead stuck in meetings with each other, the CEO and the board. This means the day to day work environment is constant fire drill management. What's more there is little upside to the pressure- in the last four years, they have only paid bonuses once.
Conseils à la direction
Get in touch with reality by spending time with employees - not just meetings with senior executives and board members - to understand that employees are stretched incredibly thin and increasing pressure will not yield anything when there is no upside being offered.

J'ai travaillé chez Anheuser-Busch en Contrat Permanent (Pendant plus de 3 ans)
Avantages
The modern Anheuser Busch (Inbev) preaches meritocracy and for the most part, its true. Those who work hard, get promoted and get rewarded.
The company is not afraid to accelerate high performers and due to the size of the company and a decent amount of churn there are a lot of opportunities.
Inconvénients
Micro management. The company is built on "Positive Friction" which ideally should challenge and only push forth the best ideas, but it really just results in everyone responding in knee jerk fashion to senior managements various and generally not cohesive opinions, which often change depending on how the wind is blowing.
Conseils à la direction
I think the A-B culture will prove successful in the marketplace, so i'm hesitant to suggest changing anything. That said allowing some level of "Bottom up" thinking, rather than constant top down pressure may be helpful in pockets.

J'ai travaillé chez Anheuser-Busch en Contrat Permanent
Avantages
Great Perks, great benefits and 401K. Exciting company, many opportunities to network with other companies/vendors.
Inconvénients
Very corporate environment. New management worked you to the bone. Many hours of work and not worth the pay. Always pushing for more even after working 12 hr days. Union scandals at its worst. Many injured drivers and merchandisers. Very little training provided. Have to be a go getter to do well in this company and take many falls.
Conseils à la direction
Better and longer field training as well as mobility training. Higher company values towards employees.

J'ai travaillé chez Anheuser-Busch en Contrat Permanent (Pendant plus de 10 ans)
Avantages
Big bonus *potential* (but read the Cons for more on that). Good resume-builder.
Inconvénients
Base pay is well below market rate, and they dangle the carrot of a potentially large bonus...but it doesn't pay out reliably. Combative, contentious environment. Work-life balance is horribly skewed. Best for people with no families, hobbies, or any other interests outside of the machine itself. Agencies and vendors are squeezed to extremes, from unreasonable payment terms to reverse auctions where they bid on the ability to execute their own ideas. Strained relationships are the norm. Employees are overworked and under-appreciated.
Conseils à la direction
The model of acquire, cut costs to the bone, and repeat has worked so far, but it's not sustainable. At some point, there won't be anything left to squeeze. But by the time that ride comes to a stop, the senior-most execs will have cashed out and what's left will be someone else's problem.

Avantages
Informal culture, not a lot of politics,
Inconvénients
Cost-cutting left and right, company says that it values "healthy conflict" , but in reality values conflict for the sake of conflict...
Conseils à la direction
Make employee development part of Sr. Management KPI's. It is cheaper to develop from within than hire from the outside.

Good salary, good opportunities to grow.
Inconvénients
Work / life balance was tested often.
Conseils à la direction
Management is different, I can't comment.

Avantages
fairly competitive pay, free beer
Inconvénients
Culture of aggression, being told what to do, top down, management is terrible and only cares about profits and making goals. Nobody will ever ask you how you're doing.
Conseils à la direction
The beer industry would be doing better if you listened to employees and made them feel welcome. Your company needs fresh blood and there's a reason there are a huge retention issues.
