Pros

Conscientious company which is going through a lot of changes (acquisitions, growth strategies) whilst at the same time looking after its employees' safety and wellbeing.

Cons

Due to the current changes, and despite keeping employees informed, there is quite a bit of uncertainty amongst employees as staff that don't fit in the new organisation are being let go whilst at the same time many new people are being taken on from outside the company.

Pros

Friendly, helpful colleagues. Vast variety of opportunities for engineers, especially younger ones. Actively supporting the communities where we live and work. Recent changes in management have restored positive outlook.

Cons

A lot of eggs are in the circular-economy basket rather than having the risk more evenly distributed among our product streams. We've lost a lot of talent recently to other businesses, partly because of unhappiness with former management but partly because of pay. Annual pay increases exist but have not even come close to keeping up with inflation.
