Pros

Work together to achieve our goals. The employees were my best friends and family. Univar was a great company to work for in the last 30 years.

Cons

Expect employees to work 12-18 hours a day. If you are not in the good old boys club, advancements or promotions are very limited.

We're all really grateful to have a job, but...

Pros

Medical benefits are good. Also, I'm relatively happy with my salary and appreciate that I can get a day off when I need it.

Cons

People in the trenches are understaffed and overworked. Technology is outdated. UVX is truly garbage. And you’re expected to waste untold hours logging every fart in Salesforce rather than bringing in business. Management leaves you to sink or swim. They expect work to get done, but don’t care if you have access to the tools or information you need to accomplish it. I’ve never worked in a place before where it was acceptable to just ignore requests for help. Layoffs and more layoffs. Sad little bonuses. Bad morale – due to all of the above and so much more.

Pros

As stated many times before, this was a great place to work until present management lost sight of what was important- happy employees translate into satisfied customers. They have lost both!

Cons

Management that doesn't understand the business of Distribution. Its not rocket science. Experienced people no longer there to guide new employees, and the ones that are left, are afraid for their jobs so they will not challenge management. Too many Executive level polo shirts that manage by numbers and wasted money on consultants.
