Pros and cons of working at Reckitt Australia & New Zealand

Pros

  • Ownership over big projects! Continuously pushing me to be at my best through support and training. Being able to still add immense amounts of value to the team despite being in a junior role.

  • The working culture and the close-knit teams that do not operate on a hierarchy.

  • People - great culture that is fun and young

  • Love the fast-paced nature of the work, strong ownership, lots of opportunity, constantly learning, varied work, fun culture and team.

  • The rate of career progression is unparalleled in the industry. Managers are very motivating, work events are great and the business is very fast-paced.

Cons

    • Steep learning curve initially.

    • The hours - the nature of the business means that you are working relatively long hours, but the office is a fun place to be so time doesn't drag.

    • Being in control means there's no one else to blame when things go wrong.

    • The speed at which we work - exceptionally fast-paced.

    • Workload can be slightly overwhelming and the processes can definitely be a bit more streamlined.
