Pros

Salary is way above average for the area. Flexible when it comes to booking time off.

Cons

Hostile atmosphere at the Wrexham plant, which rubs off on you after a while. Zero sense of team spirit. Lots of finger-pointing instead of working to find solutions to reoccurring problems for the benefit of customers (who constantly complain that we’re difficult to work with).
