Pros

Nothing, your wellbeing is more important then getting a job in a well known company. Your not missing a thing.

Cons

Unilever by far is the worst company that i have ever worked for Ive worked there for 4 years and constantly got contract renewals instead of a permanent contract. They instill a lot of fear due to not having any sense of job security. Unilever made me burnt out for a while and I don't think anyone should even consider working in this hell hole

Pros

Ability to work with contract manufacturers, overworked so you can gain a lot of experience doing many many many different roles at once

Cons

Never-ending amount of work. Micromanaging like I have never seen in my life. Managers are involved in every second of every day and have side conversations so you’re unable to actually manage your own manufacturers. Constant criticism. Doing 10 jobs at once with no appreciation or break. Constantly being talked down to, so much work that it creates anxiety and no work life balance. No team morale because everyone is stressed and over the daily burnout. LOW. Compensation
