Pros

• The company promotes an attractive mission and strong values, though these rarely translate into real behavior.

Cons

• The internal culture does not match the values the company advertises; the disconnect is constant and damaging. • Leadership relies heavily on messaging and internal conditioning, but when real situations arise, integrity and empathy are absent. • Employees who expect fairness, respect, or psychological safety will likely face disappointment. • Long‑term commitment is not rewarded; loyalty is taken for granted and often exploited. • The environment can become harmful for those who trust the company’s stated principles.

Thank you for providing us with your feedback and rating, especially for highlighting the amazing people we work with in production! While we may not agree with your assessment of our managers, we do respect your opinion. The speak up policy is an open door policy that enables you to share your views, but please also know that you are able to connect with your HR partner if that is a more comfortable option for you.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on your excellent experience at Kerry! We're glad you got off to a great start with an excellent leader whom you could learn from. As you mentioned, we do take care to ensure our pay is competitively benchmarked, but we will still make sure to socialize your feedback with the right department.
