Vantaggi

Friendly knowledgeable and experienced direct team I work with. Cycle to work scheme.

Svantaggi

No bonus scheme. Now American owned, very corporate, CEO and vice presidents give text book answers to basic layman's employee questions (they do not actually answer the question). SLT Management team seem only interested in recruiting more Vice presidents, directors and managers. CEO and SLT team relocated themselves away from main work teams at Eckington.They are not interested in recruiting people on the ground needed to actually do the design, engineering, software work needed to keep the company engine going.Lot of talented and experienced people, some been with the business 20 + years are leaving/ left in the last year or so., More than I have ever seen leave in my years working at Ovarro ( Previously Servelec).

Thank you for your feedback. We completely agree that we have many talented people working at Ovarro, and it is our people that help make Ovarro a great place to work. It is great to hear that you like our Cycle to Work Scheme, and we were delighted to launch the Electric Car Scheme in October 2022. Whilst we have said goodbye to a number of Ovarro employees over the last few years, we have also been pleased to welcome many new members to the Ovarro team. As we have continued to grow and evolve as a business, we have welcomed new sites into the Ovarro group, increased internal promotions and adapted a Smart Working approach, all of which has helped us welcome individuals across different teams, functions, levels, and locations. o 85% of all new employees welcomed into the business over the last 12 months were non-managerial/leader roles o 47% were technical roles and a further 21% were in our Operations teams To support this growth and ensure we are adhering to our health and safety responsibilities, some of our colleagues have changed their base site to make room for others. This included some members of our leadership team who were previously based at our Sheffield site and who have relocated to our Chesterfield site. We also have members of our leadership at our other sites where we also have a high number of employees Over the last couple of years, we have had to make several changes to our approach to communication to help us adjust to our working environment and our global workforce. As such, when responding to any questions that may be asked within one of our public forums, including our internal social media channel, we will aim to ensure the answer is relevant and appropriate to all employees who may be interested and/or impacted by the response. If you have a question that you do not believe has been answered, please feel free to raise this on our “You Asked, We Answered” channel on Yammer We are sorry to note that you appear to have had a disappointing experience with our People team, and that you have not found the Wellbeing activities and support provided useful to your needs. The People team aim to resolve all queries as soon as possible, however, we appreciate that this may not always be resolved satisfactorily or as quickly as individuals may like. We welcome your feedback, and please do not hesitate to contact us to discuss this further and help us understand your personal concerns

Vantaggi

Flexible work schedule(most of the time) Nice people but in minorities A lot of great talent that's unfortunately getting neglected

Svantaggi

Toxic leadership team and HR No real benefits No bonuses No real career progression They disregard your preferences and focus on what benefits their own needs(even if it's an illusion) Cunning tactics are usually used by HR to lead you to a loop(be careful when interacting with them or don't even interact at all)
