Pros

I work with an amazing group of young and enthusiastic people. I have met some amazing people at Unilever who have changed me and my outlook on life and work. Training has also been amazing, Unilever is will to invest the money into their people.

Cons

There are gaps all over our business and people in roles too big for any one person to perform successfully, but that doesn't mean they aren't expected to. It really makes me sad to see so many great managers leave the company through quitting and restructures.

Pros

All the pros have been eroded since Paul Polman took over there's none left.

Cons

They stole our final salary pension yet the board kept theirs. They claimed it wasn't viable but there was plenty in the pot for all of us. They have now stopped our overtime and pay rises for the cost of living are a thing of the past. Its turning into a sweat shop.
