Business outlook

Pros

Basically a company that's making products we all need. Brilliant science, applied well; we make stuff that creates cleaner air, safer medicines, cheaper and more flexible energy solutions. Huge heritage- we know where we've come from and we're proud of it.

Cons

Lions led by donkeys, with a few exceptions. The leadership is, with a few exceptions, terrified of its own shadow. This then comes through as paranoid, knee-jerk micromanaging rage from certain GMC members downward. There are strong people who resist this, but sadly a great many who don't and simply pass that fearful aggression downward. This should be a great place to work, but isn't.
