      A once fantastic company who has lost its founding principles. The company has lost its soul.

      Pros

      colleagues, friendships and sadly in the last few years that is it. Although the one stand out methodology Unilever introduced was agile working.

      Cons

      ineffective management, a culture of intimidation and harassment. Low morale. The way they treat the staff in the factories compared to the offices is a disgrace. Extremely poor mental health statistics due to pressure and culture. The company look to fill any new positions in low cost markets regardless of skill or talent.
