Thank you for your frank review. As a Customer Service Representative, you played a vital role in contributing to the growth and success of Univar Solutions. We want to ensure we continue to be a workplace Where People Matter and will share your feedback with the appropriate leaders. Currently, within the Customer Service team we do not ask our team members to work on an on call basis, and instead offer overtime pay on those occasions where team members might need to work longer hours. We wish you continued success in your future endeavors!
