Pros

Doubling the size of our carbon footprint while halving our carbon footprint is a pretty inspiring vision. Sustainability is at the heart of everything Unilever does. Unilever also has changed to a performance culture

Cons

not the greatest base payers in the world, however there is a much more significant focus on variable pay. Perform well - earn more
