Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We are glad to hear that you appreciate the opportunity to work with great colleagues across the globe, as collaboration in international teams is a core element of how we operate. Your observation that decisions can move a bit slowly at times is also noted. Working across regions and functions can add complexity, and we are continuously looking for ways to streamline decision making while maintaining quality and compliance. As a current employee, you are welcome to raise concrete suggestions with your manager or through internal feedback channels so that we can better understand where processes could be simplified.

Pros

Team is lovely and great interactions. I love the people I work with.

Cons

Too many reorganizations and restructuring initiatives. Company culture appears to be moving towards less collaborative and more of a single decision-maker mindset.

Thank you for your thoughtful feedback — and for your dedication over the past 8 to 10 years. Long-tenured employees like you bring invaluable perspective, especially during times of change. It is great to hear that the people and team atmosphere remain a highlight of your experience. At the same time, we hear your concerns about the pace of organizational change and the cultural shifts you are noticing. Transformation is rarely easy, and we understand it can affect the collaborative spirit many of us value. As a current employee, your voice matters — and we encourage you to share your experiences and observations through our Employee Opinion Survey. It is one of the most direct ways to help shape the direction of our workplace. Thank you again for your continued commitment.
