Novelis reviews

Likely to be partnered with a lazy worker and be expected to pick up their slack. No actual training but expects you to train new people after you’re 90 days.

The employee experience has become increasingly difficult due to constant reorganizations, unclear ownership structures, and growing pressure to deliver more work with fewer resources. High performers are often rewarded with additional responsibilities without meaningful increases in compensation, title progression, or organizational support. Many functions operate in a constant state of firefighting, with priorities regularly shifting based on operational issues or leadership changes. There is also a disconnect between leadership messaging and the day-to-day experience for employees. Collaboration and empowerment are emphasized, but decision-making often feels centralized and reactive. Career progression can feel inconsistent and heavily dependent on timing, politics, or leadership turnover rather than performance alone. Morale across the organization has suffered as workloads have increased while teams remain lean. Employees are frequently expected to absorb responsibilities outside of their original scope, and strategic or long-term thinking often takes a back seat to immediate operational pressures.
