      Really nice people but chaos due to absent board level leadership

      Pros

      No nonsensical people. Everyone is friendly. Senior managers and directors are all very approachable and human-centric. Projects in the Tech space are also genuinely exciting as the company takes its move into a modern technology-driven firm seriously.

      Cons

      Flip-flopping on a major workstream within days. A leaderless organisation. New CFO. The CEO will leave at the end of 2025, and there is no CHRO for an extended period already. Getting work done is really difficult. They haven't quite grasped how their 'operate globally, act locally' mantra translates into IT. I have been told that there is no culture of promotions in Brenntag. I leave this there....
