Pros

I joined only 3 months ago; great people who without exception gave me a very warm welcome; good benefits; fun place to work; Henkel should be on the top of your list if you want to develop your career beyond more traditional career paths; this includes mobility both within the US as well as globally. You constantly bump into colleagues who had worked in e. g. marketing in one country and then transferred to entirely different functions or businesses in another. Mobility and talent exchange seems to be genuine part of Henkel’s DNA.

Cons

Governance: balance between global and local are work in progress but best intentions and awareness to further improve are palpable. On the benefits side: parental leave needs to be added.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
