      A company whose goal is to reduce staff at any cost

      Pros

      It WAS a great company to work for when it was Courtaulds. It's only taken 18 years for AkzoNobel to asset strip every last bit of the business, leaving the most profitable part (the R&D function) to labour under intense pressure to produce results. Every other part of the business has either been down-sized, obliterated or outsourced. There is nothing worth coming to work for now.

      Cons

      Pathetic tick-in-the-box feedback for the so -called Viewpoint survey. God help you if you dare to speak your mind. Timesheeting and bean-counting gone crazy. Executive Management who come and go like it was a hotel. Distinct lack of direction Total disregard for employees - they are simply number on the bottom line which need to be reduced for the shareholders' benefit.
