Marketing Director - Marketing Director SC Johnson Employee Review

Work life balance. Lack of empowerment. Human Resources (or actually the lack of it). Career path is sometimes driven by perceptions rather than performance. Too much bureaucracy, politics and internal talking. Our VPs are more focused on looking right to the CMO and CEO, rather than building solid strategies and plans to satisfy customers and consumers. Everything has to be escalated for approval to the highest levels, even small things like case count changes!! This creates a bottle neck in all processes and slow things down. The company is working on a constant "Reaction" mode, changing directions frequently and chasing the competition, rather than leading the growth. The company has downsized the number of employees, but kept the same prehistoric, complex and slow systems to run the business. This creates inefficiency and increases (unproductive) workload
