- The workplace seemed unprepared for university graduates, with little structure or training provided - though I might have been unlucky because the more experienced engineer who I was supposed to be learning from had left soon after I started. - Weak safety culture.. improperly stored chemicals everywhere and overly casual approach by management, leaky machines, safety and cleaning SOPs not followed, this is a bad accident waiting to happen. - Not much sense of salary progression or career development - No sick pay given and long notice period - Low stress but flip side is that it felt undemanding, little sense of expectations or professional development. Ambitious people might feel frustrated or stifled in this role. - Site location isn't great, no nice shops or places for lunch nearby, not near town centre.
