      Decent pay and growth opportunities amid internal politics

      Depot manager, multiple locations
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay, good bonus structure, opportunities for development and growth. Business structure makes it easier from a customer service point of view.

      Cons

      Too demanding, rather than appreciate achievements you're maligned for targets missed. A lot of internal politics - it's a numbers game ultimately, and you have to work the numbers, you can be the hero one minute and then easily it's forgotten and you're public enemy number one the next.
