Pros

I wish I could say there were pros to working at Givaudan.

Cons

At Givaudan, workers are viewed as stuck in old ways, resistant to change. The company expects maximum effort but doesn't fairly compensate for the time and energy you put in. While some employees are praised for minor tasks that are simply part of their job, those who truly go above and beyond receive little to no recognition. Despite being a company that provides flavors and fragrances to major brands, employees aren’t even given access to the products they help create—you're expected to purchase them yourself. There's no real incentive to work here, the company does not care about employee's mental health and well being.
