Pros

Good pay and benefits and really focused on safety. Really involved with local community and tuition reimbursement program.

Cons

The nepotism here is insane. They hire kids 18-25 year olds that call off all the time or cant put the damn phone down long enough to complete a task. It's almost like a daycare center.

Pros

Brilliant and helpful colleagues make this one of the best places to work for as a fresher. The slope of your learning curve here knows bounds only set by you. There's literally nothing that the company leaves between you and your success in the job. Besides cutting edge computing and mobile equipment, ergonomic workspaces, subsidised lunch and transport, there's also work from home and flexible work hour facilities for everyone need be. These emphasize that Vestas really cares for the employee which eventually makes the employee reciprocate. It is astonishing to see how passionate everyone in the team is about work and it is infectious. It houses also amazing, empathetic leaders and managers and there's no problem of dreaded politics. Here, one would realise how small this world is when one starts collaborating seamlessly online and working with friendly and helpful Vestas colleagues from the other side of the Earth. But it's not all work and no play. Sponsored recreational events every weekend help unwind and better bond with colleagues. In Vestas, employee safety is first and they make sure there's absolutely no compromise on this regard thus making it really safe to say that one's career, growth and future is safe when one's here. It has been certified as "Great place to work" in an employee survey recently. So I'm pretty sure what I'm saying is the consensus.

Cons

Would have liked another PS4 in the recreation room in office 😛 Seriously nothing so far.

Pros

Great people, great products and position in the industry Exciting and dynamic environment.

Cons

Work harder, not smarter approach. Strategy implementation throughout the business is weak. Silos and poor processes are abundant. Strongest leadership has left, slow to back-fill. Feels aimless.
