Pros

Good pay, bonus every 6 months

Cons

Where do I even start ? Bad management with zero people skills and knowledge of the section they are in charge of. My manager had been in charge of me for 7 years and spent most of the time sat in front of a computer, only coming out the office to spy on employees and watch people on their break times, hoping to catch someone out. Follow that with a majority of cell leaders who are just in the role because they bow down to management and agree with everything they say. Shop floor had no support and our suggestions to improve areas and machines always got ignored by managers who didn’t even know how to turn the machines on! HR is non existent and lie to your face, we worked long 12 hours and weren’t even allowed a radio in the week due to not being able to afford a radio license? You are a multi mullion pound company who are you kidding? Was made redundant whilst on furlough and was promised full pay for my notice period instead of just the 80% furlough wage, another lie. If your face doesn’t fit or they don’t like you they will find any excuse to discipline you and get you out the door.

Thank you for your review. Radios in the workplace and performance related bonuses are both examples of the many benefits that the company does provide to its employees. The active Works Council is the forum provided for the Management and Workforce to work together on concerns and improvements, and has provided many improvements in the fields of HSE, working conditions, employee recognition and charity work. Employee satisfaction is measured and acted on through the regular employee surveys and focus groups. Our Leap continuous improvement system and our Corporate and Social Responsibility program are both key examples of engaging and working together with both the workforce and the wider community. We promote working in a transparent and honest manner with good communication and strong team work ethic are all core values of the company. 2020 has been a challenging year for all, and we understand that this has had a big impact on our employees; particularly those who regrettably lost their jobs through redundancies once the furlough scheme came to an end. The review is, however, factually incorrect in that all redundancy notice periods were paid at 100% of the salary as per legal obligation.

Pros

Not as hassling or micromanaged like other manufacturing companies.

Cons

Within colleagues many drama, incident or mean girl attitude without HR support or they will step in. Long time working employee got major attitude or issue. Management always having constant headache or quit with no support from anyone.
