Pros

If you want to be associated with a brand name this is the right place for you. Teams are small in size.

Cons

Ruthless working environment. Lots of politics in the office. Worst decision making authority as it takes ages to get something done here. Lots of confusion. From top management to the lower strata. Confusion, confusion, confusion everywhere ALWAYS! Managers are very rude, they shout like you are in school even if its their fault. You will always be misunderstood even after a clear and effective communication. Top management doesn't seem to help/ bother if your managers are difficult! Products don't really have the ingredients written on label. Use at your own risk. I heard this from one of the prominent employees promoting products here and was shocked! No professionalism, no work ethics at all! Forget work life balance.

Pros

Everything in there is just average

Cons

What stands out is the gap between the headline rating and the substance of employee reviews. When recurring themes like leadership gaps, culture issues, or work life imbalance keep showing up, a high overall score starts to feel less like a reflection of reality and more like a curated perception on Glassdoor.
