Vantaggi
The concept of the company is fascinating and challenging to understand if you are not a Chemical Engineer, but I enjoyed learning about it. It clearly has a great future ahead of it. Everyone was extremely friendly and passionate. I am quite introverted and like to focus on my work which can put people off, but I never had a problem here, very professional and open in my team and department as a whole. There was a pleasant, flexible approach to work and you could be trusted to crack on with what you need to do. The holiday package was also great. The position gave me time to analyse where my strengths and weaknesses were and I appreciate that experience.
Svantaggi
My position did not have a lot of organisation behind it and I quickly saw that this was not a role that was career progressive. I could also see there were certain things about the position that Management did not understand which made my work much harder and more of a chore, which was frustrating. I felt I had limited resources to do my job and the team lacked the processes and systems for clear communication that you would normally see in most companies. Benefits and promotions were also thin on the ground. By the end of my employment, I felt pretty exhausted mentally and had lost my enthusiasm for the work.
