SC Johnson reviews

Look elsewhere if you are in supply chain. I believe most of the reviews are written by HR. The pay is low compared to industry standard and there isn’t really a yearly raise . The technology is old so if you come from another company you’ll be perplexed because there are 1,000 reports that do nothing and the supply chain process is very manual. Most of the the supply chain staff came from Kraft or Genpact ( read their reviews and that should tell you alot) .The managers are more worried about the numbers than the actual process and reasoning of why they look terrible . Their process is so flawed and it is hard to get anything done let alone effectively manage the things you are responsible for. If you are in supply chain forget about having a work life balance, you are responsible for planning, project, reporting, and any other random stuff you asked for. Most of the planner work really late and are usually in by 8 at the latest. Most of the supply chain staff (non management ) has been here for 2 years or less and turn over is high.

Atrocious computer and communication technology. I was shocked when I came here. They have outsourced most of their IT help desk service and it's been a nightmare. We do so much of our own trouble shooting it's ridiculous. It can take hours longer to complete computer work/projects due to the unreliable computer technology that we are expected to work with. Skype phones, dear god...... they cut out, poor connectivity, try to find a real phone,in an emergency; you have to log into a computer in most areas. Who needs to communicate, right? Work-life balance is exceptionally poor in certain departments. Going "Global" has people at meetings online at 5 or 6 am and then again at 10 or 11 pm. My department isn't so bad, but I see what others go through and it's creating a lot of stress and dissatisfaction. I know many employees who have left for that reason. OH...and the performance review ranking system. Yea, you're director is given 1-5 numbers and someone's got to get one of those numbers. So you could all be working well, maybe 3's (average but acceptable) but SOMEONE's got to get a 2 or a 1. So unless you have a read dud in your area, someone will be forced to be a 1 or 2 to satisfy the number god and will receive a development plan and be on notice. WOW, how medieval.
