hard work but little rewards

Pros

work conditions have improved a lot for the last 3 -4 years with the introduction of PZE (timing of work to the minute), introduction of a staff discount.

Cons

The productivity is still increasing and the pressure is mounting. The staff level is skeleton to say the least, the management is more an slave driving culture rather than to devellop staff. The targets are very hard to achieve, Staff are not considered as people more than machine. ABOVE ALL the culture of lying about how we manage the business is endemic and doesn't show any sign of disappearing. Every member of staff are trained and forced to tell what the head office want to hear

The salary and holidays were good. I enjoyed working at the central distribution centre as it was interesting and busy so the days went fast.

Cons

Horrible culture with very despicable people in management and senior management.
