Pros

If you push for it and bring the right mindset, Henkel truly allows you to make an impact and grow personally and professionally. There is a strong focus on innovation, and you can feel that energy in many of the projects and initiatives. I get to work with many skilled and truly collaborative colleagues, in an environment that is much more international than I expected. The benefits package is excellent and goes above market standards in many aspects. Depending on your manager/larger team, you can often work very flexibly in terms of location and hours, thanks to a culture of trust and transparency. Over the past years, I’ve also seen a lot of positive change in terms of culture and ways of working. Leadership has taken meaningful steps toward communication, and collaboration, and it feels like they have an authentic intention to keep evolving.

Cons

It can still feel a bit hierarchical at times and in some departments. Also, there’s often a strong emphasis on “being visible”, e.g., to progress in your career, which can feel overwhelming, e.g., if you are more on the introvert side. These elements are improving, too, though.
