Pros

First things first...Herb Baum was a fantastic leader and made it a great place to work. High integrity, good results and recognition for a job well done. Brad Casper followed Herb, and had to deal with the new stress of being a newly acquired subsidiary of a German multinational. All in all, Brad has done a great job holding things together. It is a company that has demonstrated that it values diversity, people and integrity. That is much easier said than done these days, but I felt the leaders at Dial were a good group...for the most part. I was proud to have worked there.

Cons

Sometimes the oversight from the German parent company can be smothering. The Germans were nice people, but sometimes prone to micro-managing.

Pros

German-owned but most of the company still operates as a standalone, American-owned company due its strong history before the acquisition. The company is also performing strong so the perks keep rolling in and rarely is there a need to "sweat" on the job.

Cons

The acquisition occurred nearly 20 years ago and the growing pains are still being felt. The company struggles with new strategies and usually abandons one before it can make any strides. Personal growth is typically stagnate as one can most always feel as if opportunities given are solely in the best interest of the company.
