Current Employee – been working at L'Oréal Canada full-time for less than a year

Pros – -Good starting salary
-discount on products
-unlimited overtime

Cons – -very stressful environment
-too busy to train new employees
-people are not so welcoming, too much backstabbing and gossiping
-life revolves around work, don't expect a personal life
-high turnover, can't keep employees
-HR lies to new recruits, promises them of a dream job
-Most workers are young, because they are mostly fresh from university or have little experience, still naive, but they soon realize the L'Oreality and leave. A new set of young naive recruits enter and another set of overworked tired workers leave...this cycle never ends.

Advice to Senior Management – Hire more people, the problem is that people leave due to high stress because there's not enough personnel. You will always have people leaving if you don't listen to their needs. Everyone is swamped with work. Stop focusing on production for a moment and try focusing on the real and bigger problem: employees well-being. If you ask every single employee if they are satisfied, they will tell you they hate this place. You only realize how brutal L'Oréal is once you get to work there, otherwise, it seems like the ideal place, bunch of bullcrap.
