dsm-firmenich reviews about "manager"

A few middle managers ruin it for others.

Management at the manager and director levels demonstrates gaps in experience, empathy, and accountability toward employees. Departments operate in silos, each applying its own rules and interpretations of policy, resulting in inconsistency, confusion, and inefficiency rather than alignment toward a shared objective. Direction from leadership is often unclear, reactive, or absent. There is a perceived culture of favoritism and internal office politics influencing decisions related to accountability, opportunities, and employee treatment. This environment, combined with a noticeable tolerance for poor attitudes among some long-tenured employees, discourages collaboration and undermines respect and fresh ideas. These issues point to deeper cultural and governance challenges that negatively impact employee morale, trust in leadership, and overall effectiveness.

Lot of organisational changes Increasing attrition Lot of Carve out Micro management started Cost cutting

Growth opportunities are sometimes limited.

Toxic environment that gives people managers too much control.

All BU/departments' salaries are mid- to high-level in the health/nutrition industry. It's not generous, but everyone is lying flat.

Expected to be available at all times by some people

Company has friendly employees, however you find out that they overpromise employees
