Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Hasbro (More than 3 years)
Pros
Many creative people; very philanthropic; environmentally aware
Cons
Poor operational disciplines, overworked, underpaid employees, and leaders who take too are isolated from employees and are promoters, rather than visionaries working to improve how play enriches children's lives and grows their capabilities.
Advice to Management
Get out and talk with employees at all levels and listen to them and take their concerns and leadership improvement suggestions seriously

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Hasbro full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
The company is very philanthropic, loves to serve the community. The people who work here are very smart & can be very collaborative. The pay is good & the opportunity to work on different brands is exciting.
Cons
The company is broken up across 3 different buildings in 3 different cities/towns so it can be inconvenient in terms of meetings with cross functional teams. The brand strategy is great but only if all teams agree to follow it. The toy products are great but the teams are all competing internally for retail dollars so the competition is high.
Advice to Management
Get your "One Voice" strategy nailed down and clear with ALL employees who are supposed to be a part of implementing it. Also, it would be good if you consulted with your employees about restructures and reorganizations before they are put into place.

RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Hasbro full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Wonderful people for the most part, great location, kind building staff, good parking, excellent campus, HR was responsive, salary was okay. Good peripheral training programs, and many community bonding events. They are trying hard, and I would be happy to still be working there, but my position became redundant.
Cons
Executives were disorganized and the future of the editing department was uncertain. This didn't affect my day-to-day work as much as it did create an unnecessary environment of stress for the entire department.
Advice to Management
Listen to the people who have been there a long time, value their experience.

Pros
Great Benefits. Great for those with families. Great perks. Half day Fridays all year round being the best.
Cons
No work/life balance. Lied about job description and changed job responsibilities. Culture doesn't like change and will fight tooth and nail on anything remotely different.

Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Hasbro full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
- Movie screenings
- Friendly staff
- Free snacks and beverages
- Flexible schedule to meet personal needs
- Adjusted schedule (more hours M-Th, half-day Friday)Cons
- If you're not in a high-profile position, you are often forgotten and left out
- Pay is well below area average (mine is over 10% below market value)
- No opportunity for movement, unless you're in a high-profile position (designer, marketing, engineer, manager)
- Manager has no visibility of my tasks/responsibilities, so a lot of my work goes without credit/appreciation
- High-Deductible Health Insurance benefit is very expensive
- No innovation: Too many employees come from Mattel, and it feels like we're just repeating projects they did for Mattel but changing them just enough to avoid patent infringementAdvice to Management
If you tell your employee you would like to promote them to a higher position, and you give them goals to achieve in order to get there, do not keep moving the benchmark as they get closer to the goal and coming up with new excuses NOT to promote them when positions become available.

RecommendsPositive OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Hasbro full-time
Pros
The people at Hasbro are brilliant, creative, and dedicated. The company is highly ethical and does a huge amount of community focused work. It's a fun and general relaxed place to work.
Cons
Some managers are highly motivated by internal politics and personal ambition, rather than the well-being of employees or the success of the business.
Advice to Management
Make sure you understand what your workers do before making decisions that affect their jobs. Involve your employees in decision making. Take into consideration the effect your decisions have on them, and discuss your plans openly so that you can make fully informed decisions!
