What do you live about your job and the company?
During Covid Coca Cola really looked after me.As I have a respiratory illness they insisted I stay off work for over a year.They paid me full pay including bonuses & didn’t claim any monies from the government’s Furlough scene.This was the case for all Coke employees.They have also given a lump sum of money to all employees to help with the cost of living crisis.I think this is fantastic that such a large multi National company look after their employees in this way.It makes you feel that you are not a small cog in a large wheel.In fact it feels like your working for a small local company.

Never be afraid to ask a question, no matter how silly it may be. Someone may want to know the answer as well. This goes part-in-parcel with listening, it is easy to hear someone but to listen and absorb the information and if you don’t understand then ask them to explain more. People will respect you more if you are engaging with them and ask for more information if you don’t understand.

I joined the company without too much expectation and not ambitious. However my skill sets have been recognised, I have been supported and encouraged to share my achievements for best practice and to help others. I feel valued and engaged with both my colleagues and managers and enjoy the interaction with people of diversity of age, social and wide ranging backgrounds. It's all about collaboration and working together and any competition is for fun but with rewards.

Lots of opportunities will present to work with different people or to volunteer to get involved in different areas of the business. Always volunteer to do something new - it’s great to have variety but it also gives great insight into how you could do your own job even better.
