Pros

One of the best-executed work-life balance environments I've experienced in Porto's corporate landscape Fair benefits during employment and reasonable exit terms upon termination Genuine trust in employees to manage their own time and commitments with minimal micromanagement

Cons

An unexpected shift in organisational values, particularly around employee retention and job security Limited growth opportunities for those unwilling to engage in corporate politics; consistent hard work goes unrecognised unless you continuously advocate for yourself within the "right" parts of the organisation Siloed working culture with a striking lack of knowledge sharing and roadmap clarity; the environment often feels like "each for their own" despite productive team dynamics

Pros

Vestas has been at the cutting edge of wind turbine technology for quite some time. They are industry leaders at the global level.

Cons

Culture has been eroding significantly over the past few years. Too many organizational changes, all with the focus on making the shareholders more 'happy,' to the detriment of the employees who have the actual ability to make the work happen. Profit is the only thing that matters at Vestas nowadays and, therefore, several regions that are seemingly less profitable than other are essentially left out to dry. There was always a huge amount of focus on the changing market characteristics, but nearly zero action to make internal changes, either to technology or commercial strategies, in order to improve competitiveness against other WTG OEMs.
