Pros
On a positive note, the company has been going through significant changes, both in management and internal structure. Since Ricoh acquired PFH in 2023, I believe this could bring new opportunities for employees in the future. Hopefully, these changes will help create a more supportive environment and open real paths for career growth and development.
Cons
Hi everyone, I worked at PFH for a few years as a Warehouse Operative, and I believe I have enough experience to speak honestly about my time there. When I joined the company, I was promised career growth and development, but unfortunately, that never really happened. I always worked with integrity, dedication, and respect, but I didn’t feel that was returned. The salary is around €29,000 per year, which is quite below the current market rate. There are no annual pay reviews, and the benefits are very basic. The warehouse culture, especially within the HSE team, could be much better. There’s too much gossip, a lack of teamwork, and some people behave as if they’re in charge when they’re not. It’s very much an each-one-for-themselves environment. I expected to have my work recognised – I didn’t. I expected a fair salary – I didn’t get it. I expected a united team – that doesn’t exist there. I move on with my head held high, proud of my effort and honesty, and hopeful to find a workplace where hard work and respect are truly valued.
