What was once a really good place to work have become a disaster. Stay clear of this place.
Performance of this business is slipping fastThe good thingsThis company used to be a great place to work, but after the merging of the Pinnacle Baking and the Allied Mills businesses it has become a toxic environment with no one in management able to steer it in any direction but down. There is nothing good about this business at the moment.
The challengesShort term thinking drives all behaviours in this business.
Divisions work in silos
Customers are not looked after and service to them is not a patch on what it once was
The quality of the products are continually being compromised in the pursuit of cost reductions
No technical knowledge left in the business
Management unable to see problems coming, which then drives reactionary fire fighting decisions
No recognition for efforts made
No structure to product development
Personal development not supported
Unable to manage their raw ingredient supply or purchasing
Left hand never talks to the right hand
Communication about the company strategy from the leadership is non existent
