Pros

Authentic company that is driven by real values. Folks who care about the products, people and the planet. Over the last year we have had a change in senior leadership and they are actually making positive changes. Former leaders who were Private Equity based talked a good game but it was all talk. Founders and Private Equity leaders chased the dollars and made themselves rich and the rank and file suffered. New leaders seem genuine and care about people/employees first and actually LISTEN and are making positive changes. Finally we have females on leadership teams.

Cons

Only downside is the location..Durham NC is a bit boring for a single person..very college or family oriented..

Pros

Great employee engagement with sustainability and the values. This seems to also apply to many of the Clorox employees I have met, once they learn more about us and how green they can be. Gorgeous building and work campus, walking distance from interesting restaurants and cafes.

Cons

You have to have a DIY attitude in order to get anything done, and also be good at forming relationships in order to gain favors. Some managers will drive you to work on weekends and others are more balanced. Depends on how worried they are about the potential downsizing from Clorox in the future.
