Pros

I started with Minova over 5 years ago. Things were positive and leadership was strong. That ALL changed as Orica dug their claws into Minova. The more systems they took over the worse things got.

Cons

I am amazed the things they do which affect employees. I have to travel for the company and they have not reimbursed my last four trips (three months time). They claim to be upgrading to SAP and will reimburse when they decide they are ready. Outsourcing Accounting was also a BAD idea. When will it end?
