Very dangerous place to work
6th hand (Former Employee), Coosa Pines, AL – June 18, 2012
Pros: great compensation and benefits
Cons: extremely dangerous place to work
This was a very hazardous place to work and working conditions were deplorable. Kimberly-Clark did provide excellent compensation and benefits; but this was only because it was a union shop and their contract with the unions mandated such compensation and benefits.

Well paying job with good benefits and a good schedule. But shady dealings with management and corporate.
Safety coordinator/ Machine operator (Former Employee), Everett, WA – May 23, 2012
Pros: pay, benefits, shifts
Cons: lots
A very challenging and rewarding job. People were awesome to work with. Like most places it was work, so work isn't always fun. We worked rotating shift work 12 hour shifts. We had overtime opportunities all the time. Hardest part of the job was trying to break in the new people. Our machine was so massive that people were intimidated very easily. Breaking – more... them of their fear so they can focus in actually training was the most difficult part of the job. There was physical work aswell but that is just part of it. – less

Network Security SME Kimberly-Clark
Senior Security Analyst II (Current Employee), Neenah, WI – May 21, 2012
Pros: excellent management, ok compensation, great work/life balance
Cons: outsourced it, teams can contain silos, difficult to make decisions.
Kimberly-Clark IT is outsourced to a third party in India, with the exception of several Subject Matter Experts. The job is fast paced and challenging and all in all, K-C is an excellent company to work for.

Managing Chemicals
Chemical Coordinator (Former Employee), Everett, WA – April 24, 2012
Doing morning rounds, checking levels of chemical tanks, looking for leaks, spills etc. Then tranferring the information I've collected into the computer based data. Hardest part was the machine blow-downs, high temperatures, and dust. Most enjoyable was being able to relate to my co-workers and learning new skills.

Productive and fun workplace
Clerk/Trucker (Former Employee), Everett, Wa – April 23, 2012
Pros: four 12 hour days on, four days off, union, availability to bid into other departments
Cons: short breaks
I thoroughly enjoyed working at KC, the management team was very respectful and interested in what your thoughts and views on a lot of subjects were, and working 12 hour shifts I began to form family like bonds with co-workers. It was a very friendly work environment. I'd say that the hardest part of the job was just getting routines down since it was – more... a completely different environment than I was used to. I enjoyed learning how to drive different styles of forklifts and working closely with customers. – less

Nice Campus; However, not a great place for contractors; very little opportunity to obtain permanent employment
SAP Contractor (Former Employee), Roswell, GA – March 27, 2012
Pros: nice campus
Cons: no growth opportunity for contract workers, very little diversity
As a contractor, I never felt like I was part of the Kimberly-Clark environment. Essentially, as a contractor, you are required to "do your job" and not interact with the permanent employees. Very little opportunity for "outsiders" to obtain permanent employment.
