Pros

Good atmosphere, confortable situation, no stress

Cons

There is a huge lack of organisation and standardisation. The suggestions from employee to improve situation are not taken into account. It look like there are great people and a great potential but it is very frustrating to see that nothing changes. People redo and redo the same job all over again without sharing learning from other cases or projects. it is very difficult to understand the top management strategy. There is no real evaluation of performance and no promotion based on performances. The level of machine safety in factories is very low, even in Europe.

Pros

I'd genuinely struggle to tell you. Anything I thought was good going in quickly ebbed away. I had other offers but I thought this place would have a decent culture (even though the pay was a bit naff) and opportunities to grow - how wrong I was!

Cons

The job you will do will not be the job advertised to you advertised There is a clock and dagger culture, with lots of backstabbing HR pull the strings of the managers, as opposed to managers being empowered to lead but ironically the HR team doesn't understand basic employment law There are ridiculous layers of bureaucracy, meaning lots of talk and meetings, but little action
