Pros

Absolutely nothing. Seriously, i mean it.

Cons

I rarely write reviews, but this place has me so worked up I will actually take time out of my day to do this. If I could give a score of less than 1, I would give Loreal a negative number of stars. I don't know how Loreal has such a high score on Glassdoor because 95% of the people i met in my two years at Loreal were all miserable. Absolutely miserable. I worked at the Clark corporate office and the place was a revolving door. People in all levels came and went pretty much weekly. I have never seen so much turn over anywhere. The culture at Loreal is horrible. Basically each person does two jobs. The workload is unbelievable. If you can't keep up, they will be more than happy to fire you. They promote the people that destroy others and are nasty. This just drives the culture. DONT WORK HERE, YOU WILL BE MISERABLE.

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
