Pros

This place use to be a good place to work! Not anymore unless you kiss up and fit in with their super cool supervisors and managers lol 🤣 they pass up tenured people and give the newer, more “kiss ass” people the supervisor positions. It has NOTHING to do with talent to move up here! They want the weaker more “reserved” people to be in charge….. so that upper management can manipulate them easier. They have fired numerous good employees and have some very asinine reasons that they let them go. It’s a shame really! Oh well….. Univar will be bought out again and again anyways!

Cons

So many too list, wouldn’t recommend

Pros

Good benefits. Decent and decent pay.

Cons

With private equity ownership, everyone is trying not to get fired. Lay offs are forthcoming as PE cuts cost across the Company. Management cannot be trusted.
