SC Johnson reviews

For five generations SC Johnson has been kept as private enterprise. Every generation has made personal sacrifices in the name of the keeping the Company a family household. From the entrepreneurship of Samuel Curtis, to the innovation of HF Johnson and the business savviness of Samuel C. Johnson. Unfortunately, the current generation has lost his direction. Excessive greed and needs for profits have derailed the spirit of this once Great Company to work. I was privileged to see the great work of people that take it to top 10 Companies to work for 10 years in a row. For the last 7 years, the Company has slide out of the rank. Talented people left for fighting a transformation to shrink value in exchange for short term profits. If you want to transform a Company, replace its management. And so they did. In the process, they have lost engagement, discretionary effort and trust. I do appreciate all 15 years I spent at SCJ. I learned from great leaders, I traveled the word and I did my best to contribute. Unfortunately, that's not the Company SCJ is anymore.

Slow promotion. Too many bosses. Confusing roles. Transformation.
