      Competitive and bent on catching up with L'Oreal. Efficient and process-oriented, but creativity hampered by hierarchy. - Anonymous employee Henkel Employee Review

      Pros

      Very efficient, process-oriented and quick-to-market. One will learn a lot about project management. There is a focus on innovation and trends. There is hunger and passion to be #1.

      Cons

      This is a perspective based on working in the global office. It is very political and hierarchal. It has a "Devil Wears Prada" environment and sometimes you wonder who you can trust. It is management based on fear. Employee feedback is very subjective, with comments sometimes going like, "Don't be so [insert nationality here]." Consumer needs is not the focus, but rather what management thinks will work or not.

      Pros

      Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

      Cons

      Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
