It feels like the managers at Mondelez are competing at who can treat their employees worse. Lying, bullying, and intimidation are only some of the many "management techniques" that have become the norm here. I'm honestly scared of finding out what... —  read more 

How inspired and motivated do you feel here? When did you start losing inspiration? It seems to me that Mondelez is no longer doing anything or doing very little to motivate and inspire its employees. The atmosphere is bad and it's become really... —  read more 

I believe most of us have given Mondelez much more than Mondelez has given us. It is a shame what is expected of employees and how much is returned to them given the expectations. I know people who have subordinated their entire private lives to... —  read more 

Could the pay increases this year been any more of an insult. With what we went through with Covid while the company had a record year. FU

Has anyone noticed on their new routes you are expected to do too much??? I do not get very much merchandising on my new route. Mondelez expects me to do EVERYTHING! I will have a MOD and get 9 minutes. Sometimes I'm lucky enough to get 32... —  read more 

First day of dsd optimization update from somewhere in the southeastern u.s.: Inept DM forgot to send out schedule for all D stores. Inept DM forgot to send out updated contact information for a new combined territory with all new faces. Inept DM... —  read more 

As simple as that. If you walk out knowing that you'll most likely be laid off before the end of the year you are saving the company money and doing them a huge favor. Every severance saved means more bonus money for those on top. I have no intention... —  read more 

I don’t like to generalize, maybe Mondelez is a great company for some people, but for me it’s not. Especially lately. Leaving without severance pay would be another victory for them, but I am seriously considering giving them that as well, because... —  read more 

What does everyone think about their new routes? Good? Bad? BS? Comments?

How much more are you overwhelmed with work compared to a year or two ago? Can you make a comparison? My responsibilities have certainly doubled, and the stress is multiplying every day and I think they are questioning my limits, how much I can... —  read more 

Is it normal for a person to see their DM once or not at all in their long career? Someone mentioned it in the digression on one of the previous threads and now I’m really interested in your experiences. I’ve only seen him once, and it’s also not... —  read more 

That’s the worst thing. What benefit do I get from remembering how it used to be better? There are people who constantly talk about how it used to be, and how it is now, I noticed that on this forum as well. Such nostalgia makes it harder for them... —  read more 

Has anyone else experienced biased treatment, or is it just me? The merchandiser does absolutely nothing, then my boss/DM rides my a– to pick up all the slack from these lazy employees. How can I do my job, then pick up the slack of 3-5 other... —  read more 

I hear a lot of rumors that Mondelez is for sale. I’ve heard such rumors before, when I first started working here and they turned out not to be true, so I don’t believe it's the case now either. However, as much as I used to fear that this could... —  read more 

I have always dreamed of doing the job I do. When I got my dream job in this company, without any great previous experience, I was thrilled. At the time, I didn’t pay much attention to minor details that could be better in this company because I was... —  read more 

I’ve been here for a long time and I’ve built some very good relationships with people who came to Mondelez at about the same time as me. However, of all these people, only one colleague remained here, all the others either left or retired. I have a... —  read more 

Is Mondelez for sale? Heard that is why this month is such a huge push

I apologize if this topic has already been posted, but I just found out about this forum. I am interested in what it actually means for us employees when the CEO recently stated in the media that Mondelez will soon need to be something different, a... —  read more 

Recently, an acquaintance asked me to give him a little more detail about the working conditions here, since his son desperately wants to work at Mondelez. I didn’t know what to say. I was just embarrassed to say that it is better to look for... —  read more 

I understand that the situation is difficult and that many are worried about jobs, but sometimes I really don’t understand young people who are so apathetic and negative, they think that any company (including Mondelez) is there only because of them... —  read more 

When someone asks me what the atmosphere is like in this company, my answer is that the atmosphere has become such that I have to spend more time fighting toxic mediocrities and people who hide important information for unknown reasons and that it... —  read more 

So how do we get a class action. I was denied EOI but feel it was only financial as it was much easier and cheaper to get rid of newbies

A former colleague told me that he had great ideas that just didn’t resonate here. He quit and took his ideas to another company and is now happier than ever. His ideas were accepted almost immediately and he was able to very quickly advance in that... —  read more 

I've noticed that people who work at Mondelez either love it or hate it, there is no middle ground here. Some will ardently defend it even when there is nothing to defend and others will find faults even in the few good moves the company makes... —  read more 

According to the new corporate policy, you should NOT inherit ANY mess! If the rep was moved to another territory that credit / back stock counts against them on their new territory. If they are no longer with the organization that credit / back... —  read more 

Looking at the future of work post-Covid, Van de Put acknowledged some benefits of a flexible schedule for corporate workers, but said he feels the culture of the company will gradually decline with continued virtual work... —  read more 

Lately, whomever I’m talking to, everyone’s making plans to get out of here. Do I feel fine here - nope, because Mondelez now is no longer the company I started working for, but honestly, I don’t even know where I would go. I'm slowly considering... —  read more 

How do we get in touch with HR. Dont trust my DM to ask him

Seems to be a large number of people that got denied. With just a little effort seems there could have been some shuffling and honored those willing to accept offer and at same time saved jobs of others. Not familiar with this stuff but might be a... —  read more 

I’d say someone who signs an EOI, and wants to leave, but is prevented from leaving this company with what’s supposedly being offered as a severance, and forced to stay, otherwise they can leave with nothing, is an enslaved, endentured employee. The... —  read more 

I was let go been with company 20 years no real reason to why I was chosen, but the rest of my team got their new territories and I find out they are smaller than what I'm working right now. So how does laying off 2 to 3 reps per team equal smaller... —  read more 

Curious to hear experiences of those who signed EOI and were denied. I have nearly 30 years most of which were pretty successful. I was never even told that I was denied. Just told what territory will be. Seems to me almost a type of discrimination... —  read more 

Someone has already written in one of the threads that this is exactly how they left the company - without notice. Honestly, I am currently in a situation where it would be most convenient for me to leave Mondelez without any notice. However, apart... —  read more

Was a time I was proud. Now I'm embarrassed working for the worst dsd company out there. Got my EOI declined and got my 1 % raise today. Big thanks. 10 months and I'm gone. To all of you younger people. Get out.

DM here. We had a call on Wednesday and all I can say is that there are going to be some dramatic optimization changes in the organization. The call was pretty emotional when it was announced that they were bringing in a third party to facilitate... —  read more 

I’m working on an exit plan to leave. That being said, has anyone just quit without having anything to fall back on? Like a “leap of faith” that things will work out in the end. The stress level here has gotten so bad I’m actually considering it. But... —  read more 

That is how this company rolls. There's never any notice to massive changes. They send you an email or a text that there's a region call, usually day of, that's your notice. I remember when we bought Cadbury. The Cadbury rep sent me a text... —  read more 

It is usually advised that having a good network of contacts is crucial for success in finding your next job. I thought I had a solid network that I've been building while I was still working at Mondelez. I was a bit disappointed in my former... —  read more
