Pros
1. Welcoming Culture: After spending 8 years at Henkel, leaving in 2024, and returning in mid-2025, I truly appreciate how the company values long-term relationships. Coming back felt like coming home. 2. Career Growth: Henkel offers strong development opportunities. My return was supported by clear onboarding and trust in my experience. 3. Global Exposure & Innovation: Working with international teams and being part of a company that prioritizes sustainability and innovation makes the work meaningful. 4. Supportive Leadership: Managers are approachable and open to feedback, which creates a positive environment.
Cons
1. Work-Life Balance: While flexibility exists, I often found myself continuing to work during leave, which made it hard to fully disconnect. 2. High Expectations: At times, workload and deadlines can be intense, requiring strong time management.
