Holcim reviews

Lafarge seems to always be restructuring markets, product lines, job functions, etc. It is not unusual for the scope of an employee's job to change often; therefore, you may have been hired to do one job, but you could find yourself in a completely different function/role within a year whether you want it or not. Job stability is unpredictable due to the constant restructuring. In many of the salaried roles, work/life balance is truly non-existent. I also know several employees who never get the chance to take all their vacation days because of the unreasonable work expectations.

Short term focus due to level of debt of the group Currently very limited availability for advancement Lack of clear strategy from Paris head office Lack of transparency and fairness in selecting people for promotion
