Pros

Great company history. Former greatness. Now marginally good.

Cons

Promote from within. Over the past decade, it has been a very diseased culture where the good solid performers that knew the company were let go, forced to retire or quit out of frustration

Cons

If you see this post, and you are looking through the univar reviews, notice the reviews by people in management. They all have 5 stars and great reviews. As a current employee this just proves how twisted it is here. Managers literally have the life, they go out for meals with customers all winter and golf with them all summer, all the while seemingly not truly caring about what actually happens. Like I said in a previous review, they are thrown so much money with virtually no responsibility or consequence for anything.
