Pros

~Most enjoyable part of the job is being around good people

Cons

~Typical day at work consists of mostly fire fighting and/or reacting ~Don't learn anything new, except for how management should NOT run a manufacturing operation ~Workplace culture is really negative and morale is LOW (Pre-COVID even). Employees that are mostly frustrated due to out of touch management ~Hardest part of the job is watching incompetence run rampant at certain key positions, accountability is non-existent for most critical operational positions, and watching good employees leave as soon as they have a chance and/or see what's really going on around them

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are sorry that you feel that way about Givaudan. Givaudan as an industry leader is committed to adhere to high ethical standards in business conduct, compliance with laws and regulations, as well as with company policies, practices and procedures. This includes all our relations with customers, suppliers, shareholders, fellow employees, competitors, government agencies and the communities in which we work. We have set Principles of Conduct to which every employee is expected to adhere (https://www.givaudan.com/our-company/corporate-governance/principles-of-conduct). Also available is our Compliance Helpline. While our culture of integrity and open communi-cations enable employees to address any concerns directly to their line manager, the Compliance Helpline is designed to provide a ‘last resort’ for those cases in which an employee does not feel able to speak out.
