Rapid decline of a once great company

Pros

Shockingly, Univar has managed to retain some wonderfully talented employees.

Cons

Univar treats it's employees as disposable. The company is rampant with bullying, harassment and an utter lack of interest in its employees. Employees are over worked, under paid and under constant threat of firing and retribution when violation of company policies and compliance standards are brought to the attention of management. Univar talks a lot of talk about safety and protecting its employees, customers and the environment but doesn't walk the walk. Employees are consistently misled as to the companies stability, potential move, and financial outlook. Amid the compliance issues, safety issues and day to day incidents where the company falls short there is the incredibly sad practice of hiring new, less qualified people forcing long term employees out the door. It's a shameful environment that is intentionally designed to cut people, standards and operating expenses.

Pros

There use to be plenty, now there are none.

Cons

Most directors I worked with were flat out dishonest. Buddy system works well in this company. Some newly hired GMs are known to be even worse, since they are buddies of CEO and president. Lot of good people have left this place.

Pros

Straightforward. Good learning experience. For an entry level job it is a good start. Career advancement at univar is not worth it.

Cons

A bit boring, but also gives you a chance to learn the industry. Too much bureaucracy and politics at head quarters.
