Pros

- Genuine interest in its people - Commitment to healthier consumer solutions - Tend to see the slightly longer term horizon - Can do culture for a largish company (ie fail or succeed fast) - Some genuinely visionary senior management - Employees get discounts on brands!

Cons

- Still very franco-centric - Silly seniority rules based on turn over of area of responsibility - makes it hard to get good people for new ventures or start up phase businesses - HR Banding system too limiting - Too Euro-centric still - Does not have real plan for next generation of healthy but enjoyable products - Does not really know what to do with its Nutricia business

Pros

Nice office, fun perks, unlimited PTO

Cons

Toxic work environment with relentless demands and very little pay off, Salaries are not that great, Very little opportunity for growth. If you're good at your job, you're probably just going to be stuck in it with no next step. Used to be a great place to work but everything changed after the WhiteWave acquisition. If you're not willing to move to Colorado, this is basically a dead end. Turnover is extremely high, especially with HR changing every 6 months. It's clear every employee is basically looking for a way out.

Pros

Flexible time off. Good maternity time off Ok benefit but starting to get worst .

Cons

Do not join if you need any kind of visa sponsorship, worst place ever Want to do everything but had no clues what to do and how to do it. Keep pushing responsibilities to others Management also had no clue what to do as many things are broken Tend to put bunch of people to fix the problem at once but at the end nothing get done and cause many confusion They keeps loosing more and more people that means something !
