Business Outlook

Pros

Good coworkers, plant smells nice

Cons

Corporate HR are total clowns that lie to lure employee's in. Benefits, bonuses, raises and other things are shorted or non existent for long term employees. We thought things should get better when Henkel purchased Sun products but they have only been worse. HR management is toxic to employee moral. Avoid this company at all cost!!!!

Pros

High expectations coming to Henkel given the diverse products array. Family Company atmosphere would be great if they followed those principles.

Cons

Extreme organization to the detriment of the business. Management suffocates the employee. Very rigid and inflexible structure. No regard for the team or contributions of non management.
