Pros

Great exposure, direct interaction with the top management,.

Cons

Little value add to the profile, even after couples of percipience. No concept of proper training, though there is a training period but it's superficial. No importance is given to one's engineering discipline. A electrical engineer can be given a mechanical engineer's profile or a mechanical engineer can be given a ceramic engineers profile. Anything is possible, so if you want to pursue in the filed in which you have completed B.E./B.Tech you might get disappointed. Very little scope to use your brain. Irresponsible and rude supporting teams, let it be the canteen staffs, bus drivers, or even HRs. Indifferent and unprofessional HRs, rarely one can find a HR with MBA back ground. Extreme difference between the 'Culture an values' propagated and what actually exists.

Pros

Hard working staff at customer service and operations level. Acceptable working conditions. Health and safety is priority Pension, share save,

Cons

The company has no direction of where it should be going. Plenty of senior managers feathering their nests at the expense of what could be a profitable company. Countless projects left unfinished despite hours of time, money and resource poured in.

Pros

Global organisation with a huge distribution portfolio. Strong brands. Financially strong parent company. Group business tend to be market leaders

Cons

Under investment in group businesses structured to achieve average unenterprising results Below average remuneration at all levels. Pay scales that haven’t been updated in years. Meaningful Appraisal process only in place for Managers of a certain pay scale. Board level fail to engage with the business at all as there is too much focus on being obsequious to the parent company than actually managing the business. The business promotes 5 pillars of ethical principles of conduct and action; professional commitment, respect for others, integrity, loyalty, and solidarity yet the business is entirely let down by HR who are led by over promoted bullies that fail to demonstrate any level of professionalism which is disappointing for a business of this scale. The business struggle to get to grips with their accounts which are over complicated. Training and staff development is sparse verging on none existent. Internal schemes have no bearing on the world outside of saint-gobain and therefore offers little personal development. Summary Perfect place to work if you are not an entrepreneur and have low expectations.
