Innospec reviews

- 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.

Upper management clueless as to what goes on at floor level. If you're a favourite of the arrogant CEO you'll be fine. If not then there's nothing down for you. Took them 4 years to (attempt) to put in Microsoft dynamics AX to replace Oracle and they're now ditching that for SAP! But do the project team get the blame despite the project coming in millions of dollars over budget? No - because they contain the CEO's favourites. In the meantime they lost a few really good staff who ended up carrying the can for the project team's inadequacies.
