Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Unilever full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Great benefits, decent pay. Really good around vacations/PTOs.
Cons
Horrible structure (worst I have seen so far) and most experienced folks don't know what they are doing.
Advice to Management
Stop pinching pennies. You can only go so far with downsizing and sending jobs overseas. Become industry leader and command premium on your products.

RecommendsNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Unilever full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Flexible work schedule, remote work available, tuition reimbursement program and IVF benefits
Cons
Most of the managers are not good people managers they are just smart and know how to play politics and get promoted. Do your job for about 3 years then exit the company. There's no real room for growth here. Also, for such a large company you would think they would have better health insurance coverage. Cigna barely covers the basic and it is expensive.
Advice to Management
Select people to become hiring managers that don't have biases and provide better health insurance coverage to your employees instead of cost cutting with Cigna.
