Haleon Employee Reviews & Ratings

No cons in my experience

Long process and complicated procedure that delays GTM

A FTSE 20 company that has to find its balance. Many senior roles are still filled with ex GSK people that don't want change. In an FMCG environment, change is inevitable. Many processes are not fit for purpose and take too long. Senior management is well aware of that, change is underway but always takes time, especially in such a massive organisation. 2024 will be Haleon's year of finally find its balance.

Work at office was once a week, they made two days a week and now three days a week. This will hit the company for sure.

Leadership, out of touch with reality and no accountability for their behaviors, consistently blaming others. Their company motto is “healthcare for humanity” but have little humanity for the people who work for them.

salary, unsustainable workload, lack of development plans, maturity of the business, humanity isn't reflected internally

Haven't come across any yet

No opportunities to convert to full-time job.

Processes are super complicated and not efficient

Leadership Team - specially CMO and CCO

I do not have any to list.

Legacy bureaucratic issues following demerger with GSK

Disrespectful arrogant leaders in APAC

No diversity, Everybody in Leadership team from one nationality. And came from one other company. Totally monopoly in Leadership team. Nobody wants to get responsibility. Changing everything (wow, clusters, team structure, business targets) each year.

So far its nothing. Been great

Quite a dated cultural environment

internal politics and low hikes

Historically has been a big slow pharma, this should change since becoming pure FMCG company as Haleon. Many senior roles, fewer entry levels.

New company that was spun offf from IVC of Pfizer and Gsk

Can't think of anything at the moment

All good except work life balance

While the company is growing, it is not yet the biggest brand in the industry.

No work life balance at all. Absolutely chaos after separation with GSK. Leadership team only can tell what to do, but not how to do. Main issue with low level salary, and because of this good experts left the company. Very sad situation.

No cons as of now

This is the most toxic environment I've ever worked in. There is so much bullying going on from team leads I believe it to be actionable. The company doesn't care about the "community " or its employees or its customers for that matter. They are just looking for the cheapest way do do things and are cutting important quality just to save money. At the same time they drive their workers into the ground. No amount of money makes it worth working here.

should have more opportunities for freshers! should provide opportunity for Interns!

Too much chaos going onsite.

No body will support you and team mates put everything on your head if any mistake even if they are also part of that. Manager will listen only from one side conversation.

Management seems to flip flop approaches to delivery. Very dependent on contract workers but corporate values don’t extend to them. Too much around diversity and too little about the organisation and how we are succeeding in things like security. Nepotism is rife

People have been in the company for years, everyone knows everyone

No opportunities or promotions available

The company is still establishing itself and I’m sure not all decisions taken will be correct - my experience however is that the leadership are committed to our purpose (for health with humanity) and are living by those values.

Deficiencies in culture, work-life balance, mutual respect, and trust make it a challenging and unfulfilling place to work. Haleon struggles to foster a positive and inclusive work environment. The company culture is virtually nonexistent, with little emphasis on teamwork, camaraderie, or employee well-being. This lack of culture leads to a sense of isolation and disconnection among employees, making it difficult to build meaningful relationships or feel a sense of belonging. Furthermore, the company consistently prioritizes productivity and profit over employee well-being. The company demands long hours and unrealistic expectations, leading to burnout and exhaustion. The lack of work-life balance is staggering, with employees often expected to be available 24/7. This not only affects employees' mental and physical health but also leads to decreased job satisfaction and increased turnover. Perhaps most concerning, however, is the lack of mutual respect and trust within the organization. Management frequently disregards employee feedback and concerns, creating a power imbalance that fosters resentment and mistrust. This toxic dynamic permeates the entire organization, making it challenging for employees to feel valued, heard, or empowered.

Cons, Leadership is tanking this place. Very obvious they need to figure something out soon otherwise they will be gone very soon.

Many changes in the organization and very new company

Location is a bit out of reach

Zero transparency in terms of internal communication.. Company is prone to ghost its own employees before letting them go. They will put you to build simple excel for a month and tell you that soon you will be allocated in some project and thats when they fire you. Leaders don't have a clear vision of future. Company undergoes some sort of restructuring every few months. Employess are always in the edge

I am not sure, but it is a common knowledge that other companies pay better than Haleon.

Office location is a bit far out and not easily commutable.

The company appears to have been practicing the technique of “quiet firing” throughout 2025 – making conditions so miserable for people that they leave on their own and forgo any severance or unemployment. Ex-employees have compiled a list of dozens of victims of this practice. At the same time staff is being aggressively reduced, management is expecting more and more productivity, efficiency, and innovation out of the remaining staff. The culture is toxic and gets worse by the month.

Below average salary but good bonus

- Growth opportunities in terms of promotions are limited however lateral moves are possible But this probably depends on the team and role too

Very hard to see that values are being lived by most leaders Chaotic Inappropriate org design, inefficient teams

For a company that strives to deliver better everyday health with humanity, there often is none. Toxic behaviour from some leadership goes unchallenged. Constant change may be part of being an FMCG organisation but it doesn't mean you can't take people with you along the way. A "People just need to get used to it" attitude isn't exactly being human, is it.

Hierarchy, bureaucracy, poor management, poor transparency

Management was not so good

Must work every other weekend

_Restructuration plan ongoing _Work pressure

Still slow processes, wow and big pharma mentality

- Career progression is limited for most employees
