Pluspunten
Prior to working for Scott I was in a corporate environment and what I learned very quickly was how little I was valued with my prior employer. In my career, I've never worked for a more caring, compassionate, and considerate company. Being an Employee Owner creates a whole new level of pride within the workplace, and not just for me but for each employee. At Scott we work very hard. There are no short cuts in what we do. We've been around for more than 150 years and we want to see this company succeed for the next 150 years.
Minpunten
As a new person coming into the culture at Scott, there's an adaptation period that takes place. The Scott culture is different than most. The Employee Owned structure makes our hierarchy very flat. That can be uncomfortable for some people who have come from a highly structured organization. We are all owners, so the mentality of "how things should work" is more open. This may sound nice to some; but to others, it can seem like lack of leadership or governance.
