      Bad Leadership

      Pros

      They do advocate remote working

      Cons

      I can't speak for Saint Gobain Offsite Solutions on the whole but within my department there was Micromanaging, Stifling creativity, Not empowering staff to make their own decisions. Very old fashioned leadership, zero development prospects. I ended up resigning without a role to go to as the prospect of working under my line managers dictatorship any longer was a far worse thought.

      Pros

      Nothing at all - from day one a load of bullies.

      Cons

      ALL management - bullied to the point of leaving. Ruined my life or tried to. No opportunities. If you don't feel bad about yourself, they're not happy.

      Thank you for taking the time to review your time working within our IT department at Saint-Gobain. I am sorry for any negative experience you have had as a Saint-Gobain employee and I am disappointed that you weren’t able to enjoy your time with us for the reasons laid out. We work hard to create an environment of trust and to reward our employees with a comfortable and flexible working environment; always promoting health and wellbeing both mentally and physically. Regrettably I can’t change the fact that your experiences were not reflective of this, however we will take action to ensure we don’t risk any future or current employees feeling the same way. If you would be willing to provide us with more detailed feedback I would happily take the time to run through this with you – please contact me (Ieuan Male-Maltby - Recruitment Manager) on ieuan.male-maltby@saint-gobain.com and include a suitable number for me to reach you. Many thanks – I hope to hear from you soon.

      Pros

      It has given me the opportunity to be exposed to several brands, integrating the relevance of each these into my wider Saint - Gobain experience. I am fortunate to have spent my time in Jewson, which is a highly commended brand – it has given me the opportunity to grow my marketing knowledge, as well as build strong working relationships around the business. Being an innovative and sustainable brand, I know my career will continue to grow with the ever-changing world.

      Cons

      The only negative is ... if you don't apply you'll never know how massive Saint-Gobain is
