Pros

It is one of the potential company with a smart way to diversify their investment portfolio.

Cons

The majority of the people are friendly however, HR needs to improve since they are not responsive and lack of respect. The attitude of “they are owning everything” is not right since teamwork is important in the company. Furthermore, heard tons of negative input from external parties when they are dealing with HR especially when they are dealing with interviewees. Interviewees are potential candidate who may become part of the company or even though they are not, they have their eye to see what's going on. HR is a core function of the business if they are continuing to behave on the opposite values of the company, it will ruin the company image in the public.

Pros

It's all just so wonderful. Leadership, especially that from Europe is just so great. They like to change their goals every other day and I think that's great for the employee.

Cons

None, just so so great.

Pros

They improved the benefits, but that doesn’t cover up for their gross incompetence. HR actively trying to get employees to leave positive reviews on Glassdoor, usually around when someone gets a raise or considered for a new position, seems shady right?

Cons

Absolutely in no way should anyone accept a job here, even in desperation. They are an absolute mess, confused, disorganized, not a clue about how to operate a business in the US. Even if you accept a job with them, it’s highly likely that you will be laid off in a matter of months or reorganized out which has happened multiple times in the last 2 years. It’s actually quite amazing that a company can be this incompetent. They don’t actually care about you, especially if you are an American. They layoff long tenured employees with little severance because you’re just a number. Sibelco bankrupted a US company before and appears they learned nothing. It would not surprise me to see bankruptcy in the near future or sell off of parts of the business to stay afloat. Clearly they learned nothing from the last time they were inept and bankrupted a US business. Their European leadership are way in over their heads. It’s actually comical how bad they have messed up in the US glass market, competitors are eating their lunch and they aren’t intelligent enough to compete back. You need to run from this place, I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone, not even my worst enemy.
