Talks about family values but the only thing that really matters is shareholder profit - Anonymous employee Nelsons Employee Review

Good pay Good benefits package Reasonable commute

At the time, lack of collaboration between departments.

• Amazing natural wellness products with a long history. • Just a wonderful group of hardworking people based in the US office and other parts of the world. • The US group traditionally operates as a very small startup business, everyone pitching in as needed. Never boring. I've accomplished projects alone that, in any other company, would have required a team. I am very proud of my work. • As a global business based in London you will likely work with people all over the globe, which I loved so much. My work was seen in stores not just in US and Canada but by people worldwide. • Decent benefits and vacation days compared to average US business.

• Deep history of internal competition between countries, which negatively affects bottom lines. • Constant turnover in leadership. Some years only HQ makes decisions so your role will be to follow orders, even if it negatively affects your region. Some leaders will listen to localization needs, others less so. • In other global offices perhaps it differs, but in the US: Yearly budgets can be pulled at any time. / EVERYTHING needs be approved up the chain. / No time to educate yourself or keep up with software, time is focused on projects -- learn and adapt as you go. / Constantly busy but little upward opportunity. • Major layoffs common. They've cut amazing talent, seemingly after the person accomplished the impossible. (Not thinking of myself here, rather a few leaders in London.)
