Pros

Hybrid set-up Rice and internet subsidy monthly Option to purchase ESP shares Provident Fund

Cons

1.Need to finish 2 CI initiatives or projects yearly, which is giving too much pressure. Monthly check in on the status of your projects. Sometimes you don’t know what to prioritize already, operations or projects? 2. Salary increase is too low. Like there are those who get php 1,000 as a salary increase

Good morning, thanks for sharing your feedback. We understand how important fair pay is to everyone. Our salaries are regularly reviewed against the market to stay competitive, and increases are based on both performance and results — not applied equally for all. We aim to reward great work fairly and recognize those who make a strong impact. As regards to your feedback on CI initiatives, we understand that the expectations may become challenging. However, Continuous Improvement is a core part of who we are in GBS. It’s embedded in our culture and central to our success. While the targets are ambitious, it’s important to note that individual goals are aligned with team goals, so no one is expected to achieve them alone. We continue to support each other, share best practices, and ensure that our CI journey remains both attainable and rewarding. Your Henkel Team

Pros

I’m really glad to be part of Henkel. It’s a place where you can learn every day, work with great people, and contribute to brands that truly matter in people’s daily lives. At Henkel, teamwork and innovation go hand in hand, and that’s what makes it a rewarding place to grow.

Cons

Like any big company, things can move a bit slower than you’d wish sometimes, but that’s also part of the challenge that makes the wins even more rewarding.
