Business Outlook
Pros
Advantages are those associated with working for large group, good purchase discount scheme, pension possibilities, and share purchase scheme is good.
Cons
Poor communication throughout the group especially from immediate GM, lack of respect for employees shown by management, not senior management in particular, but line managers were bad. Senior management were very aloof. Monthly meetings were introduced as a briefing forum but feedback was not encouraged and line managers gave the impression this was a chore to be performed as quickly as possible to minimize downtime. This gave the impression to staff that management thought the briefing a waste of time.
