Pros
BENEFITS: overall package is not as competitive as it used to be, but is still strong. The shining example for many is the generous parental leave policy. (healthcare and 401k match seem average to slightly above average). In 2022 the leave policy will become flexible, with encouragement from upper management to take at least 4 weeks of vacation per year. ENTREPRENEURIAL: management generally encourages innovative approaches (generally, not in all departments and not in all projects) DEVELOPMENT: management generally supports career development (a lot of this is responsibility of the manager you report to, how well you perform, and how much of a "company-person" you are.) LARGE "PARENT": Nutricia is part of a larger corporation (Danone/Dannon), so benefits from a lot of training opportunities. (with transfer opportunities in other North American offices/brands and potentially international offices, esp. for top talent) CULTURE: The life-saving nutritional products link to a culture of "best care" for customers, which brings in many good people and is reflected in a lot of corporate initiatives and corporate social responsibility. LEADERSHIP: top management in recent years have taken thoughtful steps to ensure the organizational structure is right and the right people are in the right roles (some approaches outdated, based on "boomer" attitudes) DIVERSE: authentic efforts at interviewing and recruiting diverse talent and facilitating open discussion. (improving inclusivity will require honest effort)
Cons
BUREAUCRATIC: sometimes change is PAINFULLY slow, and processes can be a BIG energy "drainer" (management does listen, but being part of a much larger organization, much of this is unlikely to change) SMALL: Opportunities within Nutricia for advancement can be limited in some roles and departments, and some departments and managers seem less proactive/supportive than others. (flexibility in your location opens LOTS of doors) Millennials sometimes seem disappointed with the pace of promotions and sometimes feel preference for promotions is based on tenure (I agree in some instances, not others) BUSY: As a small company with ambitious goals, there is no shortage of work. Some employees complain that too much is expected of you FAVORITISM: some employees complain that opportunities for bonus or advancement require too much overtime or only go to overachievers. (I'm afraid that's most of what America/capitalism has to offer!) LOCATIONS: corporate offices are in suburbs near major cities OPEN SPACE: not always easy to concentrate (decent number of meeting rooms, but not always one when you need it) TECHNOLOGY: some employees are disappointed with software programs, lack of Apple computers (overall tools are sufficient to the job, and IT does what they can) "BE HERE": Not much flexibility for locally-based employees to work from home prior to COVID19, though depends on manager (office staff were strongly encouraged to work from home starting March 2020 through the time of this review, with genuine concern and efforts of support)
