Pluspunten

The individuals you get to work with are amazing. Mostly everyone is kind and tries to collaborate as well as we can. The roles I've had in HR have given me a lot of visibility, greater understanding of the organization, and some really great challenging projects and roles.

Minpunten

The Company's values are going down the toilet. Caring is one of them, and the way we structure and plan our resources makes little to no sense right now. Understand we are under restructuring, but that doesn't mean the work went away, and with more demands from both the business and HR , we're all just struggling to get by.... most work 7/8am - 7/8pm, and if you leave early (4/5pm) you're logging back in at 8/9pm until midnight or later. You are slowly killing your people. We are finding more and more employees crying in the bathroom or at their desks (HR and business) bc the amount of work is consuming. We keep saying work smarter not harder, but the reality is the structure & processes are not in place to do it AND there are somethings that just need manpower! Especially when you look at the biggest organizations / groups at the Company and the amount of support they get from Admins or HR. Its crazy. I am looking to leave asap. We say we have work-life balance, but this far from the truth - at least for HR.

Good fringe benefits. Above average insurance.

Minpunten

Very toxic work environment. Company promotes work life balance however meetings are scheduled during lunch and at 5:00pm. People are made to stand in daily plant meetings, no chairs in the rooms. Particularly hard on shop floor staff who work 12hr shifts. I NEVER had time to take a lunch hour the entire time I worked there. Phone calls at home daily/nightly(middle of the night) and almost every day every weekend as OTLs are poorly trained. Company promotes inclusion however Americans are bullied particularly by hispanics within the company. Company touts multiculturalism but does no training on dealing with other cultures. Entire plant Planning staff turned over in less than 2 years. Very stressful work environment cause by high-school like drama by LT. Managers are routinely put in PEP for issues months after they occur. No support whatsoever from Planning manager, HR or Leadership Team. Training is ALL online, when asked LT for help with SAP questions...response was to GOOGLE it. Direct manager was initially a STA with major inflated sense of self. Final manager was novice at managing people and very childish. Again, very toxic work environment overall.
