Pros

Management is strong and supportive but not overbearing. They let you run your account without being overbearing and don't micromanage. Overall an excellent place to work

Cons

Drive time is usually upwards of an hour one way for most of the sales team. Trucks have the company decal on them.

Pros

- Large site with room for significant growth and development. - Only a few hundred staff on site, able to build good relationships with a broad mix. - Great majority of people were polite, friendly and very helpful. - Dynamic and fast-paced environment. - Good remuneration and benefits including company share scheme.

Cons

- Dedication and commitment of staff not always fully recognised. - Motivation of some employees was lacking, reducing team morale. - Accountability for tasks sometimes wasn't explicit, leading to unnecessary workloads or double handling. - Plenty of politics, slow decision making at times and lack of direction. - Internal communication between departments was often delayed or lacking detail. Potential for major technological improvement (e.g live KPIs and Plant Status displayed on TVs in M, SC & QC). Currently old fashioned and behind other companies. - No promotion of training and development opportunities for new and existing staff, except for in EHS. Perceived a general lack of investment in people.
