Sad to see a legendary American company go from good to great to the gutter. All for dividends and PR. - Director Kimberly-Clark Employee Review

Pros

People are familiar with the brands. Learn how to manage large businesses with little to no money and constant budget cuts. Great experience on how to manage through a ton of Senior Leadership complexity and confusion. There are senior leaders in Atlanta, Dallas and Chicago.

Cons

There are senior leaders in Atlanta, Dallas and Chicago. Many especially in Finance, HR and Global marketing are on the same page regarding business needs. It makes it extremely difficult at times. Finance is brutal. The company has been cutting marketing and product efficacy for 10+ years for the investment dividends. The trick is to go with the constant spin (digital transformation, etc) from above to motivate the teams. Hiring has been brutal given the DE&I quotas. It was hard to let good people go and break up families.
