Bad and Lazy HR and Management - Anonymous employee Dermalogica Employee Review

HR is an absolute joke. It took over 3 months from the time I applied to my start date, despite the team I was joining being "swamped", yet there was no sense of urgency from my recruiter. I was told that people were invested in my growth, and I received nothing but positive feedback about the quality and timeliness of my work. When I asked for a raise or a full-time position, I was let go. My position was posted the very next day with the exact same job description and pay from when I applied almost a year prior. The recruiter said verbatim, "Dermalogica is not the place to get paid". Additionally, I was writing a white paper for the company. They told me I wouldn't be a named author, and when I pushed back, they just said they wouldn't publish it altogether. The pay is not good for LA nor the industry, and they are losing talent as a result.
