Pros

Working here is truly enjoyable! The company provides continuous opportunities to learn and try new things, which keeps the work exciting and dynamic. The environment is very open and supportive, allowing you to be yourself. Colleagues come from diverse nationalities and cultures, making collaboration enriching and inspiring. The organization values respect and trust, which creates a positive and empowering workplace.

Cons

Sometimes the fast-paced environment can be challenging for those who prefer a more structured routine. Workload can be high during peak periods, so time management is important.

Pros

Setting lofty goals for profitability and achieving more often than not. Puts the Customer at the center of what they do. High emphasis on Safety and Sustainability. Competitive annual raises and bonuses.

Cons

Sometimes difficult to get a promotion unless you have the right internal advocate. Also, sometimes get bogged down by internal metrics that are non-value added to Customers and Stakeholders.

Pros

Company is very "People-Centric", which is amazing. Commitment to customers is great, but Henkel understand the Power of People. While there is much more room for improvement, already a very inclusive work environment.

Cons

Company is willing to pay large sums of money on events such as partnership with USA Soccer, which is great, but then at the plant level budgets are always tight, pinching pennies. More could happen in regard to engagement if budgets were provided directly to the AO networks.
