Greene King job 17:40 - Jul 25 with 9157 viewsBurwell_Blue

Has anyone on here worked or currently does work for Greene King?

There is a job at HQ going which if I apply for I will get. Just want to know know how the company is performing and what the vibe is.

Don't work there but live in Bury and see staff around and I have dealings with them through my work with CAMRA. I get the impression the staff are reasonably content, I don't hear a lot of hitching, and the company is doing pretty well

I worked for them one summer about forty years ago cleaning barrels. You could have a couple of free pints of mild a day, and there were free cheese sandwiches in the morning and afternoon breaks.

Thumbs up to hear of a lack of hitching.

Interesting to hear, thanks. Don't want to jump for a job which is pretty good to hear that GK are downsizing or trimming numbers and I put myself in the firing line. Thanks

The company appears to be doing very well.

Just don't ask the real ale sorts for their opinions of Greene King ....

They can and bottle drinks for Adnams, as well as their own drinks. Also they are fairly established in East Anglia pubs.

So things can't be going too bad.

If he is so sure that if he applies for the job he will get it I imagine that he is a Managing Director.

Not my field, but certainly the type of stuff to be wary of.

I'd really like to say something here but you never know who's watching. My username gives my location away. I have had many years of involvement with the company. You may* or may not be right there when you say it's an absolute horror show. I couldn't possibly comment.

Not overconfidence.

I've gone for 8 jobs in my lifetime, been offered all 8. I know my stuff and can talk the talk.

The company performance within reason is pretty much publically available information...

I've known quite a few people who have worked for them and also had dealings with them as a supplier. It appears to be a bit of a marmite environment, some people love it - others hate it.

I used to deal with their marketing department, I never quite figured out if they were hugely unorganised or getting pushed heavily internally at short notice. They were very challenging to deal with from a timescale perspective.

Some reviews of working for them can be seen here:

To be fair East Anglia does have an issue with number of good quality IT professionals, so if he is any good it will be a formality.

I am, unfortunately, very aware of the lack of IT competency in E.A. & have wondered if there is a plot, not to improve things?

Indeed. Hence I feel that the original comment is gubbins. EA I suspect is no worse off for this skillset than many other parts of the country.

Wasn't there a college in Ipswich that was getting students to study Linux & other open source O/S & programmes?
