      Pros

      Great work, no crisis in waste management

      Cons

      - not too bad if you are French (and from the right school)?, it doesn't quite look the same in terms of opportunites if you are not... especially in the London area - Directors surrounded by yes-men and a lot (I mean a lot) of internal politics - Some cleaning has been undertaken recently but when I worked there a lot of Directors' and Senior Managers' positions were occupied by persons who arrived in the company when it was a quarter of its actual size, these guys were still trying to run the supermarket Veolia had become like your local grocery store

      Pros

      Good exposure to a large, complex organization with cross-functional collaboration. Opportunities to take on responsibility and learn quickly if you are proactive. Some strong internal frameworks and experienced individuals to learn from. Visibility across different teams and business units.

      Cons

      Lack of standardized processes creates unnecessary inefficiencies and rework. Too much reliance on individual knowledge instead of scalable systems. Cross-team communication is often reactive rather than coordinated, which slows execution. Roles and ownership are frequently unclear, leading to misalignment and finger-pointing. Tools exist but are not fully implemented or consistently used, resulting in avoidable manual work.
