      Infinite career opportunities, people culture

      Category finance manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Unilever is a company thriving on building talent and strong teams. There are infinite varieties of roles on offer within Finance in the 3 South West offices and beyond. The management style is generally co-operative and friendly. The levels of bureaucracy are diminishing giving wider responsibilities to more junior levels and making roles more interesting/ fulfilling.

      Cons

      Base salary is below other FMCG companies for equivalent roles BUT the extras & bonus package (many other companies don't give such generous bonuses to their Finance teams) boosts the full package to just below senior manager level for equivalent-sized FMCGs. Not a con, but a watch-out: progression can be slow if you do not drive your career with the right people (look out for those heading up the talent committees).

      Unilever has allot to offer

      Supervisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Unilever has allot of perks, such as a great company store, a cafeteria, a gym. They even have a hair salon that is priced very well . The people are a mixed group; many from other countries. Promotions are not easy to come by due to constant re-structures.

      Cons

      Each department has its own personality. Some departments are really agile (work from home) while some other departments use the agile as a perk for it's managers. It's not really clear what the policy is.
