Pros

Within Cornwall, imerys offers good base-levels of pay and the usual perks if being a large company. The local working environment was good and fairly flexible.

Cons

Upper management has a history of being very France-centric, and a general disregard for anyone outside that sphere. Corporate management is universally disliked and not respected, with good reason. Every few years Imerys undergoes a mass 'restructure' during which many people are made redundant (there are numerous examples of people who have been made redundant and rejoined the company multiple times). These 'restructures' are managed terribly by the local HR function, who, with one or two exceptions, appear totally inept.

Pros

Great company to work for, would love to be there for the long term, benefits are great most of the people are great, the work feels accomplishing.

Cons

Management has changed over the years. It’s to be determined if it’s for the better. They cater to the buddy system. If you’re their buddy, you get away with murder. If not, well prepare to be overworked and dogged on for “not doing enough”
