Thanks for taking the time to review and for recognising how good our colleagues are! Great that you had the opportunity to learn new responsibilities, it's important to us that our employees can learn new skills and progress their careers. The logistics industry is fast paced and client led but we recognise that there needs to be a work life balance and a focus on wellbeing. We have a lot of resources available to our employees to help with this.
Great coworkers and talented engineers who genuinely support one another.
Opportunity to work on impactful projects and solve real business problems.
Exposure to modern BI and data technologies.
Strong team members who are willing to go above and beyond to deliver results.
Good learning opportunities for self-motivated individuals.
Cons
Leadership and management style can create unnecessary stress and turnover risk.
Frequent micromanagement and excessive focus on responsiveness rather than outcomes.
High meeting volume reduces time available for focused engineering work.
Priorities and stakeholder commitments are sometimes established before consulting the engineers responsible for delivery.
Limited trust in experienced employees and their ability to manage their own work.
Internal growth and mobility can feel restricted.
Work-life balance can be impacted by shifting priorities and urgent requests.
Lack of recognition or compensation alignment when additional onsite expectations or workload demands are introduced.
Having a non-technical BI manager overseeing technical engineering work can sometimes result in unrealistic timelines, misunderstandings of development complexity, and decisions being made without sufficient technical input.
