"I like the fast pace and vendor relationships. There is always something to keep you busy. Creating new spreadsheets, and ways to keep all files in order. Constant change with new products and working within the warehouse environment. Sometimes the data can be overwhelming, but I just get up and take a walk to clear my head."

Buyer at Univar
in Grayson, GA

What do you like about working at Univar?

"The co-workers/ internal and external customers. The medical and dental benefits."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"A perfect fit would be a recent HS or college graduate with no prior business experience. This allows for management to mold the candidate into the type of employee that will fit with in their department."

What don't you like about working at Univar?

"Leadership was lacking in morale, team building and empowerment, Group think, lack of knowledge regarding employee's strenghts. Leadership focused on weakness and lead by intimidation and did not encourage innovation or process improvement. Leadership exercised their power regarding retaliation. Ineffective training."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Focus on empowerment, morale, positive rewards, team building and become engaged in their employees work flow/work load. Most importantly, utilize the fabulous training material available to them regarding leadership, management, employee retention and train the trainer work shops."
