Fortune Brands Innovations reviews about "work life balance"

Work Life balance can be challenging

Antiquated systems Conservative You pay for benefits ($100+ per month) They expect you to join meetings 5 minutes before they start or you are considered "late" "Midwestern values" Extremely culturally insensitive Lack of transparency even in all-hands

Work/Life balance is taxing and FBIN is beginning to outsource departments.

Work life Balance. Fast Pace.

Company relocation to IL in 2025

Drives importance of company tenure then up and requires a move to IL for all remote workers and regional offices.

Complete lack of trust in upper level leadership to make any competent decision. There is no logic or sound reason behind some of the decisions that have been made. It appears some have been made with ZERO understanding of how the brands actually develop successful and profitable products. Forced relocation to Chicago (or be fired) is causing tremendous loss of key knowledge and highly skilled non replaceable talent. There's a clear lack of any actual plan for this transition. Workspaces aren't ready, buildings aren't capable for the actual work the team does, and no one is able to clearly articulate the plan / vision.

Several cut backs in the last few years Recent mandatory relocation to centralized area

Frequent organizational change. Product management is lackluster. Healthcare plan gets worse and more expensive every year. No company equity or stocks.
