We understand that this global health crisis has introduced new daily pressures into the lives of our employees and we're mindful that this is a challenge we are facing together as a community. L’Oréal is continuing to work diligently and make every possible effort to ensure your health and safety as we transition into these unprecedented times. As part of that transition and with the health and safety of our employees top of mind, we've made accommodations for those who self-identify as high risk, as well as those who have unique personal circumstances, such as caring for a high-risk family member or dependents. As standard workplace practice, our HR colleagues are properly trained under HIPAA and in full compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act to help our employees with the necessary flexible work, long-term leave, transportation and childcare accommodations that may be needed during this time. These documents are kept completely confidential – they are only used to determine medical exceptions and are not stored or shared by L'Oréal USA for any other purpose. We’re encouraging all of our employees to have an open and sensitive dialogue with their managers and HR partners to identify what accommodations and benefits may be available to them as we work towards this new normal.

Pros

Good health insurance, that’s about it

Cons

toxic work culture and they don’t set up external candidates for success extremely tedious trainings required that have nothing to do with your daily job seems like they add processes just to make things look complicated when they are truly just launching a shampoo trainings were given sporadically and chaotically, and we’re not clearly shared to all new hires teams were backstabbing and threw each other under the bus in order to not get yelled at by leadership in meetings very catty Office politics and people whispering all the time they paint a fake exterior of inclusivity, fun, events, and socializing, but truly all of it is fake you have to really love cosmetics to work here or you will never fit in extremely marketing driven… R&D teams do not get any input or say and are just told what to do every day regardless of cost or feasibility Manager never had time to actually train me because everyone is so slammed packed with work workload is way too high per person Clark office did not have enough desks for everybody and booking was very annoying, regularly had to fight for desks extremely strict in office policy where they track your badge and you have to commit to today’s ahead of time to be in office forced socializing and events several times a month boring work but they make you feel like it’s the end of the world if a shampoo bottle doesn’t get launched marketing team quibbles over commas and apostrophes on product as if it matters had multiple meetings about different shades of white, and which white was the right white for packaging mandatory in person trainings that had nothing to do with your role Pay seemed high at first, but was absolutely not worth it once the role started
