Pros

A cosy small factory for those who prefer such environment.

Cons

No robust business processes in place at logistics side. No integration between different departments. Some managers require to receive extensive training on both theory in their functional area as well as soft skills of how to manage a team. There are some micro managers. My boss was timing how many minutes I spend at toilet.

Pros

Leader in the roofing industry

Cons

I was hired as the credit manager. I trained for three days working with SAP. The fourth day I was reviewing the receivables. The next morning I was let go. I was told I wasn't the right fit!!! I guess I wasn't worth the 70K salary.
