Brenntag Business Development Department Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

I like that there are new members and there is a fresh perspective about how Brenntag can continue to evolve. There are really great leaders on the global leadership team. There are still a few members that tend to resist change and aren't as open to equity or inclusion.

I like that our leadership is honest and resilient. They've lead the company through relentless world political and economical events.

Willingness to listen and appreciation for those who work hard.

Communicating, unifying, and letting us know where we are going as a company. We need one top leader to have a presence and he/she needs to ensure people do their jobs, are held accountable and are respectful to one another.

We have a great retirement benefit program and lots of health insurance options.

Review from Business Development Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I believe there is a gender pay and opportunity gap at Brenntag. There are several programs that have been rolled out the past two years to help support women advance in their careers. However, there hasn't been enough training for the mid-level mgmt about how to pay people for effort and skill.

Benchmarking for the position I hold in other companies, I have found my salary is almost 50% less. Also, PTO is very strict as well as the flexible scheduling ability.
