Pros

Nothing exceptional, at least in my experience. Company 401k match was 9% after your first year

Cons

I worked in the finance department. I was expected to work until 12 am at least 25% of the time. During year end, my team was working until 9 am the next day which I extremely refused. I was terminated for not meeting expectations. Sure I don’t meet the expectations to work until 10 pm everyday let alone 36 consecutive hours

Pros

Not bad salary, semi flexible, good PTO

Cons

If you don't play the extrovert political game you will be pushed out. If you question why something "needs" to be done, you will be pushed out. There are definitely worse companies, but this one leaves much to be desired. <3% merit raises each year. Will make you have goals that are unrealistic to give you a worse bonus or push you out. They monitor your wifi connection to mark in-office attendance and if you don't come in enough then your bonus could be impacted. Management does not have your back. It is very much a yes-man culture and if you do not tow the company line you will be miserable.

Pros

Great benefit. 401K matching is superb.

Cons

It used to be the best place to work for but now it's becoming really toxic. Unilever changed 3 CEOs last three years and now has their emplyees slaving away while not properly compensated.
