Pros

A great team sales, admin and accounts. lots of incentives and Spivs

Cons

Management still think it's the 80's. Their anachronistic point of view on the channel is laughable. They fail to remain relevant in a world that has moved on. Product portfolio is mostly second sourced. Company has been running at an operational loss for years

Pros

Good people in the teams

Cons

The problem is the Senior management strategies, thinking and culture. Don't appreciate the knowledged people but "Yes Sir".

Pros

They pay money which is a pro…..

Cons

Time froze Northamber in the 90s! The Chairman is just hopeless and they seem to lose vendors at a rapid rate of knots! Such as shame to see a once legendary Distribution company slowly dying! Even the culture is 90s based and ‘HR’ seem to encourage it!
