Vantaggi
• Brand Recognition: Revlon is an iconic name in beauty. It was a privilege to work with global products and be part of major brand launches. • Responsibility & Autonomy: I was trusted with end-to-end planning and budgeting across multiple brands and retailers. It was a fantastic space to build technical and commercial skills. • Cross-Functional Exposure: I regularly collaborated with marketing, finance, and supply teams gaining visibility over the full business cycle.
Svantaggi
• Limited Career Growth: Internal promotion opportunities were scarce. Advancement was only possible if someone senior exited. • Below-Average Pay Progression: Despite strong performance, annual pay increases were minimal (~3.2%) and not reflective of workload. • Restructuring Fallout: The team became leaner over time, and the additional workload wasn’t matched with support or compensation. • Underappreciation: Contributions were often overlooked, leading to a lack of motivation and feeling undervalued.
