Pros

Competitive pay, company car, strong people in the field.

Cons

Company has changed significantly in the last few years. The internal talent in the Sales Planning and Marketing departments has weakened. The communication to the field is now always last minute, flawed and not well thought out. The expectations with your sales plan are crazy. Company feels they can fun everything from Corporate, therefore they are getting rid of most field personnel with years of experience, strong relationships and higher salaries. The company is trying to get much younger. Used to have balance between work and personal life, but that is no longer the case. They are now all business. Could care less about their employees. Used to encourage employees to get involved with volunteer work and the community, but that is now discouraged.

Pros

Working at Unilever in Raeford offers strong overall benefits, including good pay for the area, solid health insurance, retirement options, and additional perks like tuition assistance and employee discounts. The company provides a stable work environment as a large global organization, with opportunities for career growth and skill development in a modern, well-maintained facility. Employees often highlight the team-oriented culture, supportive coworkers, and clean, safety-focused workplace. Overall, it’s considered a reliable employer with good work-life balance and long-term career potential.

Cons

Working there can involve long hours and rotating shifts, including nights and weekends, which can make work-life balance harder depending on your role. The job can also be physically demanding, especially in production or warehouse positions, requiring standing for long periods and repetitive tasks. Because it’s a large corporation, there can be strict policies, less flexibility, and slower decision-making. Additionally, while growth opportunities exist, advancement can sometimes feel competitive or slow without the right connections or timing.

Pros

It is a large company with a record of 3 years without a recordable injury. Occasionally feeds the employees

Cons

The biggest issue with this plant and it invades every aspect of the company is a complete lack of ability to properly communicate information. The applies internal to departments, across departments and up and down. They have the technology to do it, just not the organization. Company could probably use much more Engineering organization.
