Nestle Philippines Reviews

Working in Nestlé is not an easy task but if you have the passion you could always strive hard to improve and step up.

In our department, they focus more on sustainable packaging and using recycled materials for milk boxes.

People in the company are very professional. People care for each other and at the same time care that everyone does excellent work. During office hours, people hold each other to a high standard and demand the best work, but also help each other as needed. Outside of office hours, my teammates are close and can talk about their personal lives. People are generally friendly and kind.

The diversity and inclusion in our company is very well observed. Discrimination and similar issues are nonexistent in the workplace. Benefits as well for women such as their maternity leaves are even above the average number of days granted by other employers.

As a brand marketing intern, I am in charge of day-to-day approvals of different assets for the brand such as EDMs, banners, and CPAs. I also collaborate with agencies to approve and also give them a run down on the points of improvement in their proposed ideas or plans.

My manager is very accessible and is a great mentor. He truly cares about my wellbeing and performance. Internal communication has the right mix of formality (scheduled checkpoints) and informality (random messages and check-ins as needed). Performance feedback is honest, immediate, and very professional. I am grateful for my manager and the managers in Nestle.

The office space and facilities are amazing. I really like that there's a gym in the office. In terms of dress code, I like that they allow casual and formal wear.

Recruitment process was fast, after the initial interview with HR we had another interview with our hiring manager. Less than a day later, we were provided feedback and the results of our application. The questions that were asked in my interviews were more about my experiences in my previous internships as an intern, as well as my line manager giving me an overview on what working in the brand was like. To anyone applying for this company, data storytelling is an important skill to master. One must be able to communicate clearly what they want to say and make sure that their message is delivered within the given amount of time. Interviewers expect to hear a good story from the candidate. Other than this, it is also important for candidates to have a lot of experience leading their own projects and pursuing impactful endeavors (e.g. internship experience, organizational work, volunteer work, etc.) so that they can develop skills that will prepare them for the workplace. This will also help them build an identity that they would be proud to share with employers.

My allowance as an intern is fine and I am happy with it so far. I think the best perk so far is the free coffee. This helps me set a productive mood for myself and lets me focus and work effectively and efficiently.

Formal training includes event workshops and programs. On the other hand, informal training pertains to check-ins and feedback from line manager. From these experiences, I have honed my skills on creativity, problem-solving, decision making, ideation, communication, time management, stress management, and project management.

I generally like how the schedule is set up. I like how Friday and another date of my choice is work from home and the rest of the days can be onsite. I enjoy working 8 am to 5 pm but also do 9 am to 6 pm if there is traffic and I arrive at 9 am instead.

Nestle Philippines, Inc. is a pioneer in the Sustainability field as evidenced by its recent award. After all, it is the 1st company to transition to paper straws. It is also very active with its plastic waste collection efforts and partnerships with government agencies, NGOs, barangays, and other stakeholders.
