Pros

Drive and willingness to change

Cons

Company does not care anymore about employees as J&J did, values are not really followed and there is a lack of ownership when major issues happen. There is a lack of recognition, support to employees during this big change, high amount of pressure, work after hours has become normal. The company has great people that joined to drive a big change but unfortunately the lack of good leadership is leading the company to fail. Procurement is lead by fear under a dictatorship, if you do not follow the CPO and/or dare to have a diverse opinion, you are changed with a restructure excuse and not following clear performance but subjective CPO decision making. It is a shame, as many great people from legacy J&J have been pushed out and demotivated.

Pros

Writing this pains me because my time at Kenvue and previously JNJ was actually quite good. My team was incredible and filled with a lot of dedicated, hard-working colleagues that were ready to collaborate and uphold a system of values and standards. Kenvue itself had great benefits and all and all, I had a wonderful boss, whom is no longer with the company, who allowed me to have a great work-life balance. Unfortunately Kenvue decided those values and knowledge replaceable, and laid off our entire team.

Cons

Kenvue does NOT value employees, point blank. They only value dollar signs and what they can get out of you. They preach work-life balance and owner mindset, and a lot of other corporate garbage but ultimately do not uphold the practices they preach. It's a shame because they let go of a lot of people who actually cared deeply about the products and problem-solving to provide the best care to consumers.
