Pros

If you want to experience a job where you are multifunctional, want to learn to operate under ambiguity and be close to see how a company goes to transform into a truly global company, this is the place for you. A lot of new things happening in terms of brand building activities.

Cons

After two years of complete transformation, still a lot of ambiguity and moving pieces. All top management has been changed with high caliber talent from outside which is has advantages, but essence and values of what made SCJ special sometimes hard to find or completely lost. People more worried about "looking good" in front of the new bosses rather than really thinking what is best for the business and the teams. Many decisions taken without proper education and not considering the impact on business and people. Location-- Ive seen dozens of young employees who tried to give it a chance to commute from Chicago... till now seems an unsustainable situation. Racine is good (not great) location to live if you are a young, calm couple... but other than that, location continues to be a great issue to attract talent.

SC Johnson Response

Thanks for your review. It’s helpful to hear the feedback of long-term SCJ people, to see what you think is working or not. It’s true that there has been a lot of change, and we’re glad you recognize that a lot of that is a pro, leading to globalization and brand growth. But we also always want SCJ to stand out for its values, and we’re sorry to hear you don’t think those are on display. We’ll consider your feedback closely.
