Lack of training for subordinates but expectations are over the moon 6. Understaffed and overworked (comparing to other FMCG worked previously) 7. Claims to be flat but actually very hierarchical 8. Too many lengthy meetings on a daily basis 9. Tension between departments and bad-mouthing other staff is a norm 10. No reflection of good working culture

Pros

It is a large company with a record of 3 years without a recordable injury. Occasionally feeds the employees

Cons

The biggest issue with this plant and it invades every aspect of the company is a complete lack of ability to properly communicate information. The applies internal to departments, across departments and up and down. They have the technology to do it, just not the organization. Company could probably use much more Engineering organization.
