Reckitt reviews

-Too obsessed for P&L that they don't care about customers and consumers; continue squeezing to increase GM even when this means getting a lower quality product/packaging for consumers. -So internal focused that in 2016 didn't grow sales, only GM for saving money from trade spend, not a smart and sustainable long term strategy. - Lack of deep shopper understanding. - No training for new hires (learn it on the fly and be pressured for it), no work life balance, you can work all days and weekends until late however if you don't fall into their politics, they would threat you to fire you, that's what they call "motivation". - Managers have no people skills and they would stab you in the back instead of giving you an authentic and timely constructive feedback. - Promotions depends on like-ability or being there for a long time to have a "relationship" with the boys club. "Good" is not "good enough" depending on your likeabilty and politics.

High job rotation, once you've been in your job for a day you are considered "expert" once you've been in your job for a year, they'll rotate you to do something entirely different and yes... consider you as an "expert" after a week in the new job. Not a real big surprise that nobody actually knows what he/she is doing. High density of middle managers who: - micro manage - only convey & distribute information/orders from manager +1 - do not make any decisions - will not ever (never!) challenge marketing or their own superiors - do not know their job either RB has recently introduced a couple of additional layers of "leadership", which makes the decision making process non existent All in all, rb is continuing its downward spiral...and has not hit rock bottom - YET Sub par compensation in R&D
