Pros

Copeland is becoming a progressive company as it is being established as a standalone business.

Cons

They are losing company values as they attempt to become a standalone business. They do not value employees. They easily lay off current employees who are highly skilled and bring in new people from the outside. Managers are not involved in the work the employees are completing and are only looking out for themselves as the environment is so unstable. They are not interested in internally promoting employees just hire from the outside.

Pros

Excellent frontline management Great team and colleagues who worked hard and supported each other. Felt valued in my role and had opportunities to flex my creative muscles. Permanent hybrid work schedule introduced after new CEO was appointed. Overall, a positive experience and a company I would recommend.

Cons

When I gave my notice, I offered Copeland the chance to match my new salary. HR dismissed it outright without any counteroffer, making my decision to leave easier. Significant amount of red tape and passing the buck within adjacent departments. After the sale to Blackstone Group, the workload increased so much that deadlines were often ignored, making them meaningless. An "I don't care" attitude began to creep in, leading to a loss of project ownership and care. Copeland, previously Emerson, still has that old-school corporate vibe, where you often feel like just a cog in a big machine, with little recognition of who you are individually.
