Pros

If you work hard and apply your self 100% you can achieve a ten year period without ever missing a target.

Cons

The vast majority of middle and senior management were either lazy or incompetent. There were though a few exceptions but all too rare.Too many managers who were crooks.One MD thankfully got fired as a result of a ex-policeman investigation funded by Wurth Germany,where every allegation made was confirmed. Apparently he cried like a baby when he got the bullet.

Pros

They do give people a chance for promotions, but this is due to low pay (unable to get better candidates externally)

Cons

A now rotten company culture to the core, almost every aspect has been stripped back to cut costs, over analyse & then critique against the employee at their will. Unrealistic targets, lowering market share, over priced products, too many slow understaffed layers of internal procedures, bullying culture among senior management to middle. Base has been increased but all bonuses slashed with caveats to mean overall pay down 7-12k. Pressure put on daily via WhatsApp, Email, Phone calls & texts out of working hours. Expectation to attend meetings remotely while off sick. Blame solely placed on the ADM or ASM for companies position in the UK market. Zero praise or recognition for anything positive. A draining experience and one I would recommend others to follow suit & leave sooner rather than later #sinkingship

Pros

Seeing the company car leave my street when I quit. Met some good folk during training.

Cons

Lied to during the interview process about career progression and targets. Pathetic salary with poor commission and unrealistic targets. Useless and uncaring office staff who are just there to fill a seat. For some reason they think that a bog standard Astra is a benefit. You should maybe look at other companies benefits before boasting. Wurth seems to accept that they are a revolving door of a company, so much so that they have a dedicated member of staff to complete exit interviews. If you are thinking about applying, don't bother, it will be a part of your life you will never get back.
