People are our greatest asset
The annual office party season is upon us. In the old days, office parties at breweries were raucous affairs. Booze would flow so freely that invariably some would get so drunk that they would snog behind the filing cabinet and pass out under a desk, all the while the boss gave his usual soul-stroking speech about “we are all a big family here”. Did anybody honestly believe him? For the most part, probably not. Fast-forward twenty years and it has become even more of a cliché, rendered hollow by brewers’ changing corporate cultures.
