Pros

Very little other than some great colleagues.

Cons

Unpleasant working environment in Aberdeen with some deceitful and dishonest leaders. Snr. HR Leadership has a poor reputation across the region and there appears to be a general lack of people skills and empathy with very little grasp of UK Employment Law knowledge and HR Policy and Practice within the business. They appear to have been ‘winging it’ for years. Lack of employee engagement and being respectful to staff and ‘doing the right thing’ can present challenges. Other than Operations Leadership in Aberdeen there is a general lack of visibility of any members of the Snr Leadership Team. The business lacks clear vision and structure and global integration appears to be non existent. The business has hemorrhaged great talent over the years and HR Snr Management appear to be doing nothing to ascertain why! There appears to have been no bench-marking or market analysis carried out in relation to compensation and benefits and there is a feeling that culture and engagement are only ever used as ‘buzz’ words to tick a box! There was no interest in employee welfare or well being and staff stress levels were and probably still are at an all time high!

Pros

Global company with a product to help the world communicate better.

Cons

Leadership lacked experience, diretion and overall emotional intelligence. Not the greatest place to grow your career within the SCM function. Also the wfh culture was very imbalanced for overall work-life balance; wanted you accessible 24-7.
