Pros

Competitive Salary and compensation is about the only thing I can think of, but even that isn't worth it when you don't get support to grow your territory.

Cons

Internal systems and processes are non-existent or broken, supply plans don't support territories for growth. Upper management is clueless and has a bunch of clueless yes men/women working for them.

Pros

Good people and good product lines. Bring back the fundamentals like Growth, market leadership and continuous improvement. Customers and suppliers need the old Univar back!

Cons

Management has no clue! CEO and upper management are lost. They keep changing compensation plans and all the best people are leaving. CEO is all about himself and will be gone in less than a year! No talent in US management had to bring in management from Europe. All they did in Europe was cut expenses and have not grown share in years. Manage board let all the best upper management go and again have no idea what to do.
