Pros

Ecolab is a relatively stable company, compensation is about industry average, the training programs are decent (LSS, Culture & Inclusion). I was given a chance to work in new areas of supply chain and learn from experienced associates, there are still some good people there.

Cons

Talent drain is non-stop, it seems like if a person is half-way competent they spend a couple years there, get frustrated with the antiquated systems and thinking and move on to bigger and better things. Supply chain is looked at as strictly a cost-center, therefore the amount of investment and focus within the company is commensurate with that approach.

Pros

The pros are four day work week 10 hour days, with many Fridays volunteer overtime They try to make a friendly environment

Cons

The pay is not as good as the other places around the area – odd for a fortune 200 company Daily quotas on work – some of them are unrealistic Many department supervisors – a.k.a. “coaches “ are pretty good – one or two are not. Typically these are the ones that have been there for 25 years plus. 20 minute break in the morning, 20 minute break for lunch 10 minute break in the afternoon You are truly on your feet for majority of the 10 hour day The corporation tries to make a friendly environment, but very few employees involve themselves in it. Much backstabbing among line workforce, not a healthy environment. Line workforce runs to supervisors constantly about other people when they should be concerned about their own work. Management has their favorites and you could see that by who who they talk to, and who Brown noses them
