Pros

None I can mention shabby company

Cons

When an employee does something wrong they are sacked, When Supervision and HR staff copy and tamper with an employees medical report and pass this illegal copy around three different departments without the knowledge or consent of the employee, None of them are sacked and the employees ends up resigning in disgust at the Castlebromwich plant,

Pros

OK Pay, good if you know how to work the system and are happy with this.

Cons

-Incredibly process-driven, processes themselves being inefficient -Far too many managers who manage other managers -IT support outsourced to useless people who are unhelpful -Silo working: most seem happy with this but it means everyone's work is duplicated - Major engineering issues ignored - HR is not fit for purpose. If you ever have health issues, god help you as they will make things worse - Many talented people end up in a job which is a poor match to their skills. Due to outdated processes this is difficult to resolve, and management are uninterested in a solution. - The company runs on buzzwords! - Training courses are a joke. The company wastes a huge amount of money on outside training providers who charge a great deal to provide nothing of real value.
