Business Outlook
Pros
It's a friendly environment with casual dress code. Even when I was a contractor there, they used to treated me like a Univar employee. I learnt a lot (by myself).
Cons
They are doing a huge reconstruction, firing people without even considering what the impact will be on the business. You go to the office being afraid of being fired the same day. They work with a very American mentality. The 40% of employee has been cut in the last 6 months while they keep saying Univar is the leader on the market! They hire people without experience paying them the minimum, but then they do not train them on the job or on the Univar specific stuff. Very often people make considerable mistakes just because of the poor training.
