Pros

A tour of the mine and the train is cool (if you like trains).

Cons

Extremely toxic environment created by upper management. Bullying is a regular occurrence with limit support. Numerous complaints from various individuals. This is something that is felt across Robertsbridge. Note: this is not for the whole of BG just Robertsbridge.

Pros

Great people who work here but sadly management and leaders let it down.

Cons

The turnover is high, the salaries are average. Job progression is limited depending in the department you are in. Management is not great and needs a lot of improvement.

Pros

we often read that the younger generation may view working for the same group for 32 years as "boring", i can tell you my 32 years with Saint-Gobain / British Gypsum have been far from boring. But i will leave you be the judge of it. i may have worked for one employer but i have held position on 2 continents, 3 countries, 2 divisions, 5 businesses and 9 locations. i had short assignment in 22 countries on 4 continents. i have managed "turn round", continuous improvement project, rationalisation and major capital investment. i have been involved in acquisition, merger and divestment. And i have always worked with diverse team with a collective competence and motivation of the highest level. i think that is more than 32 reasons....

Cons

Mobility may be seen for some as a challenge. it can be but ii can ensure you that all my moves ( 8 in total so far ) have been rewarding both professionally and personally. it is also true for my wife and 3 children.
