Pros

The benefits are good. They truly care about their products and invest into R&D to be able to have high end quality products. Their Beauty and Laundry divisions are large and you potentially are able to take on new roles (promote from within).

Cons

I know Corporate is do more with less but Henkel stretches that too far. It is not uncommon to see 1 person with 2+ full time job responsibilities and the jobs are completely unrelated. It is very old fashion; there are a couple of Senior Managers/VPs that rule by intimidation instead of being a leader. They don’t invest into the business side. The reporting tool appears to be a proprietary system that only runs in Germany. In the States its a complete joke. You will not develop any skills with this tool. They want to run like and have the same level of data as a large company (that they are) without the investment.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
