Thank you for your review. It is great to see that you would recommend us as an employer, but I was sorry to read you feel staff are not treated fairly. I want to reassure you that our HR Department are not responsible for making recruitment decisions. This is down to the Recruiting Manager. Our HR Team support managers through the recruitment process and ensure fairness, consistency and adherence to procedure. Managers are encouraged to select the best candidate for the job based upon their skills and knowledge. I hope this provides some clarification for you. Thank you again for your review and we wish you continued success in your career.

Pros

Comfortable working conditions, Good work force! Men and Women on the shop floor are very friendly and welcoming. Great shift patterns!

Cons

Norbar got brought by Snap-on Tools a number of years ago, since the buy out there has been a constant cut to terms and conditions and benefits! Bonus scheme has been drastically cut and thresholds to achieve a bonus have been made almost impossible to achieve. The annual Christmas shutdown has been abolished from 2025 showing family balance isn’t a priority the company! No longer a company Christmas party! There is a bullying culture within the company from senior and middle management towards shop floor employees which has been allowed to continue to this day without any consequences!
