Pros

Great company to learn and develop at. Try to be at the forefront of innovation. Very smart people leading the business.

Cons

Constant change to respond to the environment, but never see the outcomes. High IQ leaders with low EQ. Diversity seems to be more of a marketing tool than truly embedded in the culture. Leadership only just beginning to reflect the consumer.

Pros

Unilever has great company perks. Also great opportunity to come in and put your own stamp on a project at the production level.

Cons

Scale of work is large, expected to work 50-70 hours weekly. I had colleagues who worked 80+ a week at times.

Pros

Solid company with great vision and mission. Good benefits compared with other companies in NJ. Great products that make the employees proud of.

Cons

Employees are overloaded and performing two to three jobs. Great policies on well being but reality are employees that can barely have lunch time. Weak leadership that has different bias from the company's main mission on diversity and inclusion.
