Pro Carrier Reviews

Unfortunately a toxic work place. No capable or existing project management, No BA for the business as a whole, CAB meetings are setup in spirit and not attended. It's spinning plates. Supplier management is next to non existent, and process is subverted on a whim, by supplier managers and departments. Individuals in the company somehow get away with setting up processes for their area and then not following them themselves. managers who reinvent the wheel and don't actually listen to their employees with the most experience about the missing resource to run an already existing process. Directors and Management don't handle long term suppliers correctly, then blame the supplier when the company doesn't manage them correctly or communicate their off the cuff recently discovered objectives. Inadequate HR and under resourced, processes in all manners and grievances not handled correctly before inevitable catastrophe and people leave under duress, HR comes unapproachable, stubborn in what it's needs and holds bias, also forgets about personal needs of employees. I've never seen so many staff go off with stress. Chronically under resourced across key departments. Favoratisim is rife, a smokers paradise. Departments can tail wag the dog, the dog being the company, but only if that department is making money. Directors have own agendas which are not communicated to the teams below them and which directly impact their day job, managers and directors outright lie to their staff when confronted with their oversight. Managers openly communicating that they don't know how long a particular team is going to last in the company, when that team is in the room... then wonder why moral is non existent. Some managers are playing at the role. Lack of understanding at a director/management level of the tools product available to the company and no suggestions of moving forward with the products if it's not something they can personally benefit from or leverage for their own gain, the individual reigns not the company, it's very short sighted. Doing a thing is more important than the logic of why they are doing something. Departments have different reward structures, causing internal conflict. However when departments do well they get rewarded, but when the department/section does badly the whole company suffers. (Redundancies from areas that weren't a part of mismanagement of that area) New "strategic objectives" that are based on consequences over reward and don't align to departmental goals, Strategic objectives from one department work against the objectives of another causing conflict and anamosity, zero cohesion and more conflict. Projects started on a whimsical need of the day/week then never seen through to completion after countless resource time/money spent, only to park and then actually delete projects entirely (losing all gained project knowledge) and revisit later when that same need arises again. Running before they can walk on most changes. Short term fixes over long term improvements. Selling products that don't exist then wondering why it's falling over when that product somehow needs to exist because they sold it within the next 5 minutes. Siloed working, changes made in departments (due to a lack of project management) without BA/PM or CAB approval, projects already in flight before being stopped due to a factor not picked up in a BA/PM stage (because there isn't any) Nepatistic hiring is rife, rule for one and not the other. Run like a school unfortunately, and cliques exist in this company. The business doesn't trust its staff, and gives no compromise on remote working, they tar everyone with the same brush, they feel they own you rather than employ you to do your role,( which apparently they needed...) The Tilbury site is a downgrade to the other buildings they used to own. Laindon/ Billericay There is a lack of meeting rooms and collaborate spaces. There's no communal area for the size of the building and number of staff You eat in your car or at your desk, or outside where the distinct smell of chemical industry is in the air. Ammonia. People book these meeting rooms out and can kick you out if they're more "important". The reason for the Tilbury site was for collaboration but every department is behind security doors inter departmental doors, the building is clearly designed for multiple businesses not the one and really is not a well designed building for this purpose. There's a sizable car park that is shared with Uniserve (The parent company) which can make the car parking challenging due to lack of space, and exasperated by the lack of remote working being a possibility for more than one day for mere muggles (which you are reminded is only by concession) because they have a'bums on seats' mentality as their is no trust. There is a McDonald's and probably the largest ASDA in England opposite though if you like meal deal.
