Pros

If you are good at your job, you are noticed and if you put the time & energy into the company, there will always be a place for you to grow and learn. There are many people at the company who have been there for 20+ years, and there is a reason for it. I am lucky to have a great manager and other mentors who saw my potential and was able to foster and harness the energy that I bring to Univar.

Cons

There is not any on boarding for new Sales Reps, you are tossed into the position and I have seen a lot of failed attempts. Its much better to start in a position at the company where you can learn all the ins and outs of the business before starting at a higher position where there is already an expectation you know how everything flows together.

Pros

Unlimited vacation is a perk.

Cons

The company has serious cultural and leadership issues, particularly around accountability for inappropriate conduct. There have been significant concerns regarding a senior global employee’s behavior, including inappropriate sexual relationships with employees across multiple countries and concerns about misuse of position, influence, and company resources to support his behavior. The fact that these concerns were reportedly allowed to continue raises serious questions about the company’s commitment to "safety". Reporting concerns to HR was not viewed as an effective solution. A workplace cannot maintain trust when employees believe power and position can shield predatory behavior. Employees should also be aware that compensation expectations may not align with reality. Bonuses that employees work toward throughout the year will not be paid out as expected, and communication around these decisions has been unclear and last minute. Overall, leadership has appeared disorganized, unqualified, inconsistent, and lacking direction.
