Business Outlook

Pros

Global reach. Leader in their market segment. Exciting and diverse work. Met and worked with some extraordinary people along the way.

Cons

The culture has deteriorated over the last decade. Management team is full of sycophants. Cronyism is rife. The business has simply thrown away so much experience and talent that got them to where they are, to be replaced by mates from mining companies with no idea about what it means to run a global explosives manufacturing enterprise and little concern for people. Then they leave or are thrown out and the cycle continues. Everyone is constantly watching their back for the next round of heads to be chopped. There is almost no one i know who has not been executed by management and had their full time contract terminated. There is a culture of bullying and harassment that goes with the pressure applied.
