Friendly colleagues, but management could improve - Senior Product Associate Dr. Squatch Employee Review

Great work place, flexible, great culture

Not any cons so far

Dr. Squatch has a fun brand and genuinely enjoyable team events. The people are largely kind and the culture on the surface feels collaborative. The work itself is interesting if you’re passionate about CPG and personal care.

The management style operates more like a consulting firm than a consumer brand — you are either exceeding expectations or you are out. There is very little formal coaching or development support, and expectations are not always clearly communicated before you are held accountable for them. I experienced a situation where I went from a positive performance review to a formal disciplinary process within weeks, with no documented corrective steps in between. When I proactively sought coaching and feedback, that initiative was used as the foundation for discipline rather than being met with genuine support. Accommodation processes were not handled properly and HR was largely absent from conversations where they should have been present.
