Colgate-Palmolive reviews

Important to know: Still expanding piscataway building to move more employees Continuing project gateway: re-organization aka layoff of employees in all countries and move jobs to India. Difficult to bring in new technologies even when there is a need and is aligned with Colgate strategy, business drives IT in this organization Corporate politics - network and know people if you want to move up, don't necessarily need to be good at what you do. Take note: 401K plan - after 5 years of service its required company take $3,000 of your pay and puts it into Colgate stock, in addition to whatever you are already contributing. Penalty received if you try to take it out, same with bonus.

Company has been implementing quiet firing since late q3. They’ve been warning the whole organization about layoffs for months via internal emails, videos, and town halls. They have also mandated four days in office with no data or reasoning as to why. People are very much aware that this is the very top trying to get people to quit on their own so that the org does not have to pay unemployment/severance. While this may be legal in the US, it’s extremely unethical behavior to purposely reduce moral and scare your employees into quitting. I’ve always thought of Colgate as an ethical company so I’m saddened to see them take the unethical approach. The culture, unfortunately, has shifted from progressive to more and more regressive.
