Pros

The company has a high focus on retaining top talent with a strong internal promotion program. If you are a good worker and do a great job in your role, you will be recognized and can go as far as you want to in your career. The company values are not just marketing words, they are seen throughout the globe and lived every day.

Cons

Consistently high paced environment, you have to like and want to be busy at all times during the work day and feel inspired and proud knowing that you are a part of a company that is in progress of getting to the next level.

Pros

Lactalis has a bit of a startup vibe in how fast things move, paired with the support and stability of a large global company. Work-life balance and location flexibility are definitely positives, though they can depend on your specific role and team. The organization within each business unit is relatively flat, leading to higher visibility. Leadership generally wants to do the right thing for the long term of the business. Turnover is low on most teams. Healthcare benefits exceed previous organizations I’ve worked for. PTO and retirement benefits align with industry standards.

Cons

The organization is fairly flat and has relatively low turnover so there aren’t always clear paths for long term advancement (pro: organization seems willing to find solutions). Lactalis culture is definitely better than other organizations I’ve worked for, but it’s not consistent across the board (can vary drastically by department and role). Performance is mixed, handful of brands are thriving and others lagging. Accountability isn’t as strong as it could be, which can make it harder to drive results and lead to disproportionate workloads (vast difference vs previous publicly traded employer).

Pros

Internal job openings for new roles are usually transparent. Lots of opportunity for internal mobility both nationally and globally. Positive corporate role job environment and excellent training accessibility. Benefits are excellent and there is tuition reimbursement which you don't see very often these days at other companies. Great opportunities to collaborate in person with teams even if across the country or the world. Value animal welfare and sustainability. Huge focus on US growth and acquisition opportunities and you feel valued along with a sense of loyalty as an employee by the organization as their employee.

Cons

Some lack of diversity in leadership roles.
