Pros

The site in Hemel Hempstead is a good environment and has a diverse group of people who who are generally supportive, products are interesting and highly engineered which makes it quite a dynamic and exciting place to work, there are good opportunities if you don’t mind relocating and this is actively encouraged.

Cons

As the business model is decentralised each GM has autonomy for its business which can work well. However GMs change every 3/4 years and they tend to lead to lots of changes .Some business areas are not geared to offer flexible working and areas can be quite Male dominated.

Pros

Good company, good culture overall

Cons

Pay could be less than the market, though not too low. Work life balance does cover some of that gap

Pros

Coworkers are great Many problems so you stay busy as a CI person The people at the worker bee level are the only real pro

Cons

Managers are too “wise” You can’t change anything inside the ERP but they all want ERP changes (it’s bad you will get frustrated) Super decentralized meaning all building operate how they want to. They make it sound like a strength but it’s literally their biggest weakness. Managers do not understand processes USZ or the NSC in Charlotte has a serious issue of hiring people who are not qualified for manager roles as managers. Discrimination They care more about how you look and not so much about the work you produce
