Colgate-Palmolive reviews

Low salary and weak opportunities to learn new language

Very hierarchical and political. If the key people like you, you will get promoted quickly. A fearful company. More focused in reducing costs , increase profit, and deal with the short team issues, than in creating true innovation or develop and invest in brands and UX, except among some exceptions in the oral care business. As a consequence of this fear environment, people spend endless hours to create presentations to justify everything, even minimal thinking. If there are issues raised, some managers will try to convince their teams they have the wrong type of thinking regardless of common sense. MKT creative agencies with long term contracts sometimes exhibit a scary lack of taste in design and creativity. There are very limited opportunities to choose a new agency unless you work in oral care. Teams are extremely lean after years of cost cutting programs. Is not rare to see people being asked to do a job two or three people did before. Managers don't focus in developing employees, just manage up. If an employee is not liked, a manager can say anything to wear them out and make them go, or let them go. HR will support these decisions .
