Pros

As with all food production maintenance work, it depends on the lads you are with and site you are at. I have no complaints with my site, the workload is not excessive, but enough to keep you busy. 4/4 shift patterns work for me, may not work for others.

Cons

Honestly for me I have no issue with my job. The site is ok, pay is good and work level is a good balance. It's a smaller site so opportunities to move up the engineering ladder are small if you wish to do that, once you reach multi-skilled level.

Pros

Offer all colleagues private healthcare however, the plan is very restrictive.

Cons

Limited progression. Very poor management at all levels. Lots of legacy colleagues with significantly inflated salaries which causes tension amongst the workforce. Work-life balance is also poor- large emphasis on working beyond contracted hours for salaried staff without compensation.
