Pros

Associate brand managers receive outstanding marketing training and are given a high level of responsibility and autonomy. Most of the people who work at Unilever are very smart and nice, enabling strong collaboration.

Cons

Long hours. Can be challenging to navigate some of the bureaucracy. Path to promotion is not as quick as at some other consumer packaged goods companies.

Pros

Great balanced and diverse culture. Performance-driven tempered with wholesome "family-ness". Opportunities for travel and training.

Cons

Pay is not competitive enough Human Resource Management seem more focused on processes rather than people itself. Lack of career certainty (roadmap) for entry-to-mid level positions.

Pros

Excellent benefits (honestly I don't think I could find the same great benefits anywhere else in Singapore), great office space. The company offers/supports flexible working environment, you can work from home, but this arrangement does not fit all roles.

Cons

The accountability issues are shocking, blurry sight on who-does-what, too many layers of stakeholders involved and decision making is extremely slow.
