Great School

Pros

A multinational company with good HR practices and appraisal systems, where a graduate can learn a lot in his/her field. Additionally, the multi-departmental experience is very useful, where in most of the cases, managers are very supportive towards their subordinates and a lot of on-the-job training is conducted.

Cons

The atmosphere especially with the Unilever 1 project is not the best and nobody feels security. In addition, in order to move forward someone needs to have good relationships with the key persons and performance is not always the main reason.

Pros

Great work/life balance and emphasis on celebration in the workplace In depth partnership with cross-functional partners makes for very broad involvement in the business Finance is a tight-knit and welcoming community, with college recruiting, on-boarding, and professional development largely organized by people within the function, creating a real feeling of ownership within the organization.

Cons

Can be very hierarchical, with opaque advancement policies, making it frustrating to figure out how to distinguish yourself as a high achiever
