Unrealistic expectations, 25 year old out dated system. Superiors micromanaging employee's, hard to keep up with expectations. No incentives, No bonus. Not worth all the stress.

Pros

I have LOVED my time with Univar for the past couple years. I have a wonderful team, manager, pay is ok, and acceptable benefits. Up until about August that is.

Cons

The extremely poor choice to merge with LN and lay off hundreds and hundreds of valuable employees, to hire contractors in their place. What a shame. Your customers aren’t pleased. Your contractors are beyond over worked and under trained. Thus dropping like flies. Your new customer solutions “supervisors” in Dublin are AWFUL. I mean I have never spoken with less competent, less willing to help supervisors in my life. If I was reporting to them I’d quit too, like many of the contractors have. Do they honestly find themselves that self important? It is mind blowing that Univar would drag their customers and LOYAL employees on like this. Surely they can tell how little we feel valued as of late. Customer service week was a joke back in October. $22 gift cards mostly geared towards contractors. The overall morale for your long term employees from customer service to ops to transportation is just depleted. A company where people matter???
