H.J. Heinz Limited – “Great brands, shame about the leadership”

Pros

Fantastic brands and some great people working hard to maintain the success in the UK of brands like Heinz Beanz, Heinz Tomato Ketchup & HP Sauce

Cons

An "us and them" feeling that exist between middle and senior management, which is triggered by the leadership style at the top, and the revolving door of people in the company leaving (some willingly, some not).

Advice to Senior Management

Listen to and respect the employees - it is the people who make the brands, who make the business.
