Toxic

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Direct team members are great, lots of fun and comradery with each other, sometimes there is food,

Cons

Very toxic behavior by upper management There is an expectation that you should be working all the time and not have a life outside of Essilor "Oh you're sick? Sorry, this is still needed by tomorrow" No respect, consideration, or appreciation for your time Never thank you, always do more They will try to get away underpaying you compared to the market

Pros

Lots of opportunities to stretch and grow, if politically savvy, competitive and highly networked.

Cons

Revolving door, no change management practices with lots of change, needs to pay more attention to inclusive work environment. HR is there for management - employees. Can do better with recruiting and retaining ethnic minorities.
