Looks Good Externally, Very Different Internally - Sales Reckitt Employee Review

* Leadership quality is inconsistent and politics can outweigh merit * In my experience, senior leadership often felt distant, selective, and overly focused on M-1 layers rather than the broader organisation * Interactions from some leaders could come across as performative rather than genuine * Junior and executive-level employees were not always treated with the same respect in meetings * HR felt out of touch with what teams were actually dealing with on the ground * Sales teams can feel overstretched, under-supported, and left to handle too much on their own * Repeated restructuring / VSS cycles create constant uncertainty and hurt morale * Poor transparency during people decisions and organisational changes * Values sound strong externally, but employee experience does not always match * Short-term firefighting often takes priority over clear long-term direction * Internal mobility and career pathing can feel unclear or selectively applied * Trust between employees and leadership can be weak
