Pros

Great opportunity for a good talented engineer to grow and to also experience large scale automotive manufacturing and automation. also learned about adhesives and chemical processes from fantastically talented chemists.

Cons

Henkel is a family owned global company. Decisions are often made for short term monetary gains over thoughtful business choices. Possibly too big to understand which individual's are generating profits IE carrying a businesses group. Then eliminate the group or business unit. Like the old saying about throwing out the baby with the bath water. Also promotion is tied to having an MBA. Probably because all MBAs look at short term profits and management bonuses over long term business strategy.

Pros

I’ve been with Henkel for over 5 years. I’ve been giving many opportunities to work on new projects and make an impact. Plus, it is amazing to see how the company continues to invest in providing a strong employee experience and growth opportunities. I truly love working here and have some of the most inspiring, talented team members.

Cons

Henkel is a global corporation, which sometimes leads to processes being complex and taking longer than anticipated. However, the company is really embracing an “impact over perfection” mindset to support being more agile, and it is working!
