    Pros

    Good company brand name to work for. Great, exciting products. Located in London..

    Cons

    The startup ethos and mentality manifest in a dynamic environment marked by frequent fluctuations in communication and role expectations, with the noticeable presence of favoritism. The implementation of policies and regulations often appears to hinge on the personal preferences of managers, including specific ethnic affiliations, rather than the quality of work delivered. While there is an emphasis on fostering a workplace akin to the global reputation of Hershey, the regional experience does not align with such aspirations. In light of these observations, I would not recommend working here. It is imperative to embrace diverse perspectives and innovative thinking to maintain progressiveness and stay ahead of the curve. Despite the rhetoric of encouraging employees to speak up, the company's agility and receptiveness to feedback from its workforce appear to be lacking.
