Thank you for sharing your feedback and we are happy to hear your positive experience at Danone. As we acknowledged that leadership values and sustainable development are of great importance to our people and our business, we are happy to see that you experienced this in a positive way. We are aware that IT tools are a challenge for us and we are working on this topic. For example, we launched an internal project “Digitally fluent” and our IT and Transformation teams work on updating our IT infrastructure. We made some big steps, but we know we are not there yet, especially not in the fast changing IT landscape. Thank you once again for taking your time to evaluate Danone!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! At Danone we try to encourage and support each employee to shape their career path by alternating between the various functions, contexts and cultures. We are very happy to see that this is not just our vision, but a reality! We take the health and wellbeing of our employees seriously and we want this to resonate with our mission. At the same time, we do acknowledge that there (sometimes) is a high workload, so we are always looking for the right balance. Therefore, it’s of great value to hear your feedback so we can act upon this.
