Hello - Thank you expressing the pros of our flexible work arrangements and benefits. I am sorry to hear about your other experiences. We do count on our leaders to recommend to us former colleagues who they have seen perform well in other companies. We want leaders with coffee experience and sometimes would like to bring leaders from other business sectors who we can teach about our top quality coffee. This cross-pollinating brings ideas from the outside and enriches our company. Of course, we have guidelines in place to ensure all employees at all levels throughout the organization abide by our Code of Business Conduct, and our Leaders continue to role model this behavior. With respect to growth opportunities, we are committed to developing our employees using several leadership and management programs including our new Journey to the Heart of the Capsule initiatives. We encourage all of our qualified employees to apply! If you have more specifics you want us to look into, please contact me or our confidential employee help-line at 888-424-2409. Thank you. Guillaume Le Cunff President @ Nespresso USA

Pros

Free coffee and Free Lunch.

Cons

The culture here is terrible. People doing business in french. Unfriendly people all around. No one even says good morning. Even if you speak they walk by you. The lack of communication between departments is terrible. People in the brand team and CRM will throw you under the bus in a meeting to save their own butts.Pointless accusatory meetings that waste people time. The ones conducting them have nothing better to do and want to feel important. Nothing gets done that way. THe worse thing is there is no type of process to follow at this company. Everything is last minute and rushed. Quantity over Quality here. Head for the hills! Don't work here. Guarantee you will quit soon.

Hello – Thank you for your positive feedback regarding the benefits provided to employees. A flexible work environment is important to today’s workplace given the balance employees need, and we are happy that about 15% of our employees have a flexible work arrangement. It is one of the ways we show we care about our employees and families. We are committed to developing our employees using several leadership and management programs and supporting our people with the PDG tool which we use to identify future internal talent. Currently YTD 58% of the open jobs for all salaried positions are filled with internal employees. Also, in 2015, we introduced several improvements to our scripts providing our coffee specialists with more flexibility when interacting with customers. We deployed this at the CRC and in 2016 will be introducing it to the Boutiques. This initiative has been well received, and employees enjoy the empowerment they are given. My team and I uphold and act with equity and fairness. If you have specific examples of where you believe we have fallen short, please speak with me or contact our confidential employee help-line at 888-424-2409. Thank you for your input. Guillaume Le Cunff President @ Nespresso USA
