Pros
Good training systems. Good work/life balance for my role but have noticed people in others having to put more work in with no overtime pay.
Cons
U.K. HR control everything to the point of the workplace feeling like a concentration camp. If you work in a plant you are treated like a child where clock ins are monitored by HR. Salaries are controlled fully by HR, the managers have little involvement with salary increases. Graduates who have to go on day release to university as part of the programme have to work the missed hours they spend at university back, graduates are unable to claim for fuel compensation for trips to university. Benefits for mid-management staff: pension. Nothing else. You don’t feel like an asset to the company you feel like an expense.
