Avoid this place like a plaque - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Raisio

Working for Benecol in the medical marketing department has been an enriching experience filled with opportunities for creativity and growth - particularly due to the amount of autonomy they provide to their staff to 'test and learn' as they are viewed as the experts in their area. The company's commitment to promoting heart health through innovative products aligns perfectly with my passion for making a positive impact on the health of the countries that we operate in. There can be challenging periods of time throughout the year but overall, the work-life balance is great, with flexibility to work from home when needed. The hierarchical structure is relatively flat which means that people have lots of opportunities to have their voice heard and can make a difference.

There can sometimes be a disconnect between HQ and the local teams but senior leadership are working hard to improve the lines of communication between all teams

Flexible WFH policy, easy work for a good pay

Poor culture, lots of blaming and bickering between teams. Most people get on well, however this leads to lots of b*tching as people cross the line between colleagues and acquaintances quickly. Lots of red tape even when things were desperate, not a lot to do most of the time. No HR in place in the UK, no learning or development opportunities. Lots of coasting going on, not a place to learn. No action to retain taken after mentioning unhappiness with role. Lots of business performance kept hush. No sharing of marketing performance if performed poorly, so no learnings going on.
