Pros

- Benefits are still competitive with similar companies. - Pay is decent. - Most line level employees who actually do the work are great to work with and want to succeed. - Some facilities located in great areas. - Great place to gain experience supporting and delivering well-known global brands and products.

Cons

- The CEO is not respected or trusted by many rank-and-file employees. The CEO rating on this site is a good representation of the larger employee pool at Kimberly-Clark. - The 9-box grid forced ranking performance management system has driven salaried employee morale into the ground. People who used to love coming to work now hate it.. - This is no longer the house that Darwin built. And it really started getting bad over the last 8 years. - Low and middle level managers are afraid to challenge leadership above them. Senior leadership has not fostered an environment where people feel comfortable challenging the status quo.
