Pros

Great to work locally, old company principles with allowing you to leave at a moment's notice if a personal emergency occurs. Great drivers and managers.

Cons

Unfortunately some staff personalities are not dealt with which need to be addressed. Then the place would be perfect. Staff parking can sometimes be an issue.

Pros

- Focus on worker's safety, but not healthy. - Big name, the group has wide footprint in many countries. - Industry prospect is good.

Cons

- Promotion based on no of years of service and relationship with the bosses instead of capability and contribution. - Long service staff never get replaced unless they are retired. - Poor performance management - the person who can perform well will get loaded more job but no reward. - Many duplicate reporting to different regional function heads. - Inefficient finance reporting - long way to catch up - Must show willingness to work late or during weekend frequently to prove your commitment even though it is because of the one's inefficiency - Stereotype thinking, very poor innovation and prefer olden days approach - Senior management are lack of hunger to strike for improvement because they already in stable position and enjoying big package - Poor communication flow from top the bottom
