Pros

Some nice colleagues (but all leaving the business)

Cons

Undervalues employees and overworks them, more than double-hatting is the norm now and raising geographical scope and job responsibilities of frontline Level 1 work force that would be across multiple people in other companies without additional compensation - potential person of colour issue Too many graduates, apprentices and industrial placements doing the work of full-time employees with zero experience putting strain on delegated full time employees to train them No work life balance for some work level 1 and 2s Productivity plan impacts still ongoing, remaining colleagues leaving in October will expose more gaps Superficial line managers who delegate badly, prioritising networking the corporate ladder rather than managing and doing the role

Under resourced and underpaid for the skills I bring to the table, which contributes to retention issues

Pros

It is a large company with a record of 3 years without a recordable injury. Occasionally feeds the employees

Cons

The biggest issue with this plant and it invades every aspect of the company is a complete lack of ability to properly communicate information. The applies internal to departments, across departments and up and down. They have the technology to do it, just not the organization. Company could probably use much more Engineering organization.
