Pros

Givaudan is a global company so it’s great to work with talents abroad

Cons

Management is horrible. Bad culture. Very negative environment. Unhappy employees at Tulisa Park, Johannesburg office. Too much favoritism. Fear of speaking up. Fear of victimization. managers that don’t care about you. Each for their own. No team dynamic. Don’t recommend working here unless senior management changes
