Pros

Pay is decent You generally work alone, unless one of the women are in s bad mood. If so, they will approach you to let you know that you such at life. But if you can get the freudenberg queens to leave you alone, then your golden. If not, you'll be in the unemployment line. Things

Cons

Morale Tense atmosphere Gossiping Cliques Management couldn't care any less for their employees. Supervisors are generally decent, but they aren't given any room to use their own discretion on things. Their hands are tied. Hr treats everyone below them as children. Only I would hope they have a more caring approach when it comes to children. Work life balance is totally heavy on the work side. Your life including friends, wife/ husband, kids, will have to take a backseat until you gain a little seniority so that you don't have to carry the pager phone. Until then you will likely be there almost everyday

Pros

Stable company with broad global reach. Front office jobs not demanding, hybrid schedules and low expectations lead most to be 30-35 hr weeks.

Cons

At first this looks like a positive: you’ll notice that many employees have tenures of 15,20, 30 years. But that leads to a lot of group think and insular behaviors. They actually have a common statement among employees - “you’re not a Freudenberger unless you’ve been here 10 years.” Not exactly a welcoming statement to new employees. If you’d like to have your input and thoughts ignored for a decade, this is the place for you. Convinced they have great technologies, but in market terms, average technology at best. Horrific infighting between divisions. Management meetings resemble Klukluxclan meetings in terms of diversity. Pay scales below market, 401k match very weak
