SharePoint Administrator (Former Employee), Leeds – August 21, 2012
Pros: friendly people, supportive management, professional environment
Cons: long hours
A typical day at work would involve research on SharePoint, creating and designing SharePoint sites, organizing meetings, solving IT issues, admin duties and running training classes/drop in sessions. I learned a lot about SharePoint. I learned the benefits of using SharePoint, and did all the technical/IT work relating to it. The management were supportive – more... and very professional. My colleagues were very professional too and we worked well as part of a time. The hardest part of the job was solving complex SharePoint issues. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with a wide range of departments from across the world and exceeding the expectations of my management team. – less

I regularly look at the customer – more... line items and recover any invalid deductions - providing the Account Manager with all the supporting documentations.

I run regular reports for the Account managers to support their decision making and ensuring that promotions are finalised on time to avoid any price claims.

Ingredient Handler (Current Employee), Owensboro, KY – June 13, 2013
Pros: great pay and benefits
Cons: restructure of the company causing lay offs
In my position I add ingredients to different produce we run on my line. I'm responible for measuring and adding the correct ingredient and the right amount. I also drive a fork lift to get ingredients as need and deliver the product. I have learned the vaule of work as a team to get the job done. i have also learned alot about work on a line with other – more... people. Although many changes have accured since I have worked here, management has always work hard to keep everyone up to date on whats going on with the company and lay offs. They were very helpful in my hiring process and training me to do my job. There is nothing hard about my job. I enjoy work with the people and managers around me and learning how to be my productive in my position. – less
