Description



About the Book



Investigative reporter Alecia Swasy reveals the chilling truth about Procter & Gamble--the company that produces Tide, Crest, Pringles, Pampers, and a host of other popular products. From offices run with obsessive control to tales of extraordinary marketing arrogance, Swasy paints the picture of a cutthroat company. "Explosive".-- Fortune.



Book Synopsis



In this explosive expose, Wall Street Journal reporter Alecia Swasy tells the chilling story of life within P&G. Wonderfully readable, impeccably researched, Soap Opera is a sobering look at the price of success in American business.

Behind Procter & Gamble's wholesome image is a control-obsessed company so paranoid that Wall Street analysts, employees, and the chairman himself refer to it as "the Kremlin."
