      How is diversity at Henkel?

      Henkel reviews

      too many tasks imposed on interns with low pay

      Anonymous intern
      Former intern

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      abundant learning resources, opportunities to participate in different projects

      Cons

      overworking, micromanagement, lack of opportunities for return offers, lack of diversity and inclusion (the whole organization is dominated by German and White men)

      Mixed feelings

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Multinational company, promotes diversity and inclusion, good benefits, strong brands

      Cons

      Though Henkel promotes smart work, there are still many people managers who are micromanaging, lack of empathy especially to thriving mothers and selfish (doesn’t give opportunities like projects etc to team members). When you get a bad boss, your career growth is over. Mass layoffs do happen (no bearing even top talents get laid off). Promoting “craft your career” culture but so difficult for internal movement (“who you know” is a leverage). HR’s Rotational program is limited, only for interns. Why not invest/open the opportunity to internal full-time employees who’s highly motivated, already adaptive to fast-paced environment or even a talent employee? Career growth seems to be very slow when you’re in a less team-oriented department.

      Good company - No opportunities for young people

      Pros

      The company overall has a good environment to work in, people are supportive and nice, it's good to learn

      Cons

      There is no opportunity for development as an intern and most openings are for interns and not for junior positions, which I think says a lot about the consideration of young people in the company
