Horrible leadership out of Portland and Denmark - Recruiter Vestas Wind Systems Employee Review

Blades had a great payroll and recruiting department. A Shared Services division was created. People out of the Portland Sales and Service business unit took over payroll & benefits, recruiting and finance. They let go of some very good, successful employees in the Blades BU and handed it over to people either incompetent or who’s #’s couldn’t match the people they let go. The culture with Blades was one of support and encouragement…the culture out of Portland is one of fear and intimidation. Before Shared Services, the Blades turnover #’s were below 5%. Portlands #’s were around 18% turnover. Now Blades turnover is matching Portlands #’s so I guess they got what they wanted. Beware, Vestas’s CEO made it very clear, if the wind tax credit is not extended by congress, all manufacturing jobs in the US will be eliminated. This is a sinking ship who’s captains in Denmark do not know what the left hand is doing from their right hand.
