      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people are great to work with and working on personal care brands is fulfilling

      Cons

      The forced processes for end of year evaluations end up negatively impacting some people who do not deserve it. Promotions tend to be given based on who you know and popularity rather than merit.

      Unilever as an employer

      Assistant manager finance
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1) Engagement, and Empowerment; 2) Working closely with senior management, who share his/ her experience in different situations (lot of learnings); 3) Working under great business leaders; 4) Great systems and processes; and 5) lot of transfer to abroad, which gives employees experience of Global unilever.

      Cons

      1) Number of shifts are less from junior management (level 1D) to senior managemnt; 2) very low lateral recruitment and relatively lower oppurtunity for lateral recruits; and 3) Less focus on low profitability businesses, and hence on those employees working for such businesses. Which results in lower oppurtunity within Unilever.
