Pros

The Henkel's work environmnet is very healthy, people in general are kind and enjoyable. The benefits package is generous and there is a lunch service inside the building. I feel autonomous to perform my activities.

Cons

Asking for authorization, accessories and work tools is quite slow. The IT services is not the best.
