Church & Dwight reviews

Technology, product, and process innovations are a big talking point at some of the highest levels, however the company culture has had little tolerance for change, particularly when the payout for changes are longer term. The absolute need to exceed quarterly objectives thwarts any workflow that interferes with any department's performance. The company has been built to be reactionary to market leading companies (i.e. P&G), which leaves strategic thinking and process captive to short term tactical maneuvering. To ensure compliance, all levels of management have been accustomed to using fear and bully tactics to change the course of the ship when navigating rough waters, which is on every day's horizon.

HR does not conduct business the same as other companies, their lack of addressing visible issues within the business units is disappointing. Exit interviews are not conducted therefore not helping the organization better themselves on problems that need to be addressed. Senior management is horrible with the R&D department, showing little to no care about who really completes the work. Horrible behaviors are accepted and praised and rewarded with promotions. Benefits and other incentives have been cut such as employee stock program. The workload is not compensated with pay, the company is very lean making each workload almost double. There is no career growth, people get promoted based on likability and exceptions to promotions are done for company favorites.
