      Great Place to Learn

      Assistant brand manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible working hours along with a team full of friendly people who want you to learn as much as possible is the best part about it. Each Brand Manager also loves their brand personally which makes them put so much effort into their work.

      Cons

      The pay isn't the best considering the size of the company, also the fact you have to live 1 hour by public transport to obtain parking (luckily I can get parking)

      Amazing People and Purpose and an Awesome Place to Work!!

      Pros

      The list of reasons why Unilever is the best place to work is way too long. So below are just a few: Purpose – UL realizes the value of people who have a purpose as much as our brands with a purpose. People – the organization cares about their employees as much as they do customers and consumers. Also the people who work at UL are smart, nice and most importantly authentic. Brands – It is really an awesome feeling to let people know you work for this amazing company Unilever, and “Oh by the way, they make Dove, Hellmann’s, Ben & Jerry’s”. Flexibility – agile work environment. Being able to get your job done from wherever, whenever. Empowerment – being encouraged to own and make decisions and knowing that the leaders have your back. and many more...

      Cons

      With all large organization, process can get in the way of being able to get things done quickly. Unilever has done a tremendous job over the past few years of tackling this barrier by changing the way we work. This has removed a lot of the complexity which has allowed things to be done quicker and simpler.
