Pros

Wella Northen Europe has a fantastic work environment, with employees in leadership positions who have been in the company for many years, changing from legacy companies to the one it is now. It is a great and well - known brand, that gives the employees the pride of working for a famous, far-reaching brand that brings satisfaction, care, and beauty.

Cons

Frequent leadership changes, which made it difficult to maintain consistency in strategy, priorities, and ways of working, also affecting long-term planning and creating uncertainty within the team. The workload within HR was very high compared to the size of the team. With a reduced headcount, HR was expected to manage both operational and strategic responsibilities, which often led to overload and limited the ability to focus on more value-added initiatives. Additionally, the HR operations function lacked sufficient experience, as many roles were filled with junior profiles without adequate preparation or support.
