What is the best part of working at the company?
On a positive note, this was a fun company to work for. They had a lot of employee engagement events which made the work environment pleasant.  As a salaried employee, they were also pretty flexible with work hours, start times, etc which helps with work/life balance.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The management team in the Quality department. There was so much infighting and backstabbing that you could never build relationships with people because you never felt they could be trusted. There was also a lot of interference in day to day business from corporate quality group - who never seemed to know what was going on at the site anyway.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Outside of the odd subculture that seems to exist in the Quality unit, the rest of the company was pleasant. I think this can be attributed to the Operations Manager and Training Manager who are both very engaging and try to make the place fun and enjoyable.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The work I was assigned was far below my level of contribution and not in line with what was discussed with me at my interview. I was offered a senior level position and was relegated to typing excel spreadsheets all day. I ended up leaving for something more challenging and more appropriate for my education and experience.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Getting to know some of the people other words it sucks

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part is not getting enough hours but not knowing if you're going to work and not getting hired on by the actual company of edgewell and staying as a temp employee no vacation time no holiday

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
That people of all different cultures which is kind of nice

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Well it was once great when I thought I actually had a career there! But they really are interested in hiring many people! They do not hire production people I came in as someone with a skilled job but never got the opportunity to actually do it or show my ability! I was not even trained for the position as the person that was training me wanted my job and it is a Cutthroat place people don't care about anybody but themselves there! The bosses have no clue what's actually going on the floor who does what and who is a team player

What is the best part of working at the company?
The company is generous in terms of product discounts and gift products. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Standing all day and pressure with the running production. Although difficult but in a way, develops the agility of its workers.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Yelling is a common behavior in the Production Dept. Disrespect among workers, lots of mean guys and rude women with dirty mouths and lots of boisterous laughter while at work. Some of those promoted to higher levels are not educated (not even with GED) and almost illiterate (cannot answer tests but just cheat to pass,  mainly by copying from others) and mostly the ones who break the rules of the company.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Exhausted, achy body. The only consolation is the nice treatment from those employees in other departments who are respectful and polite.

My time at Edgewell has been a bit of a rollercoaster. They have undergone more than their fair share of changes within the organization which has caused challenges with employee expectations and has created a rather hostile environment. I think my biggest point of angst here is that it starts top down and they don’t do a good job of holding their managers accountable. They have a long way to go, and hopefully with leadership changes they will begin to retain the employees they are rapidly losing. I fear that even from an HR level they are blind to the culture or lack thereof I should say. They have A LOT of work to do to make this a company people enjoy coming to everyday and wish them luck.

Starting with the hiring process I knew this was a very professional and thorough company. I went through a very thorough training program to make sure I was not only ready to do my job without guidance, but that I would be safe in doing so. I feel appreciated by colleagues and management. I am thankful I was given the opportunity to become an employee here. Of course there a few things that could be better, but these are things I’ve seen at other companies of the same field. Not everything can be perfect all the time but at Edgewell I feel like they do what they can to make it the best they can for all employees.

It pays 10 dollars more for any position accross the street.   The management is so busy trying to not get eachother in trouble that they will throw their own employees under the bus.  The communication is pathetic.  Ive never seen a lead yell at another department for not answering a call when they were responsible for getting their own people a way to communicate.  They pass the buck on everything.  Ive never seen a manager not investigate a situation and then lose it when they are called out on their own incompetence.   Most of the employees dont even bother trying because they dont care.  Why would you.  All you have to do is show up to get paid.  Just dont upset the tired lazy middle management or they will lie on you faster than they do anything else...including their own job.

Edgewell was a great place for me to work, provided good opportunities for advancement and I was provided autonomy and ownership for my work. This isn't the case for everyone as some businesses get significantly more oversight from senior management than others.
Since splitting from Energizer Holdings it has been a challenging environment with one restructuring and/or cost savings program after another without a clear long term growth plan or consistency of culture.
Many excellent, nice people but not as much drive from the top or accountability as needed

Busy the whole day.  As a quality engineer I would have to occasionally work off hours.  It is a 24/7 plant, but it didnt make it unbearable.
What sets this place apart is the care for the employees.  Not necessarily with free food/swag, but if there were ever issues to our worksite, such as water having to be shutoff, immediate phone calls to a third party would occur and get us temporary bathrooms on site, with running water.
Definitely felt like most of the people here cared about me as a person as well as a fellow employee.
If there was ever an issue or roadblock there never was a "what do you want me to do about it" it was always, "how can we get past this successfully"

Promotions are political. They culture is toxic because it's one sided. You can't make a compliment in chain of command without being targeted. If your an outsider,you do not stand a chance unless you are connected some how. The hierarchy is someone's friend and/or family at a lower level. This result helps and impedes true justice or equal opportunity and harassment free work atmosphere. The Dover plant claims diversity while it delivers antonyms. They are only diverse on " cool kid in school ideology" while displaying disregard for true diversity. They are moraly and culturally bankrupt when it come to true diversity and acceptance unless it fit the hierarchy views and ideas.
