Pros

Have not seen any pros since merger in March 2019

Cons

Do not value current employees. Building a negative culture for new organization.

Pros

Good coworkers and supervisors for the most part.

Cons

**This job is COLLECTIONS** Do not be fooled by the job title, this is not an accounting job. Also, slave labor levels of work. Absolutely UNREASONABLE levels of work. Perfect analogy: "It's like having a 5 story building with 30 leaks on each floor, but only having one cup to catch all of the water." And if you let too much water hit the floor, you're either eventually fired or sternly talked to by management on a daily basis.

Univar Solutions Response
