Pros

Good salary and benefits. Flexible work hours. In house cafeteria with subsidized lunch. Great health insurance. Fruit baskets! 4 1/2 day work week.

Cons

Not enough project in the pipeline. Recycling same work for the last 4+ years. Poor upper management in the corporate headquarter. If you are not from Denmark, you don't have a future with this company. Stay away from this company.

Going downhill fast

Pros

Good pension match, ok salary

Cons

Diabolical mismanagement of the technology function which Vincent is happy to hide his head in the sand about. Making decisions with zero due diligence is a bad look and then doubling down on those decisions even though everyone can see it's a bad decision is even worse. They've quietly reversed a few recent decisions, but it's really poor leadership when you can't own up to your mistakes and admit that you got it wrong and take steps to avoid doing so again the future. The values are a complete and utter joke. Multiple people have reported unethical behaviour of leadership to whistleblower/ombuds functions and been quickly dispatched of in the next reorg which leads to a culture of fear and yes-men.

Pros

Great benefits, pension, and HR support. My immediate leadership team is fantastic, both line managers and the heads of department. I have never worked in a more engaged, collaborative, and productive team.

Cons

The “car crash” management from the most senior leadership leaves so much to be desired. No due diligence and discovery regarding what’s working well and what isn’t. Pre-conceived opinions executed upon by the senior IT leadership. The “Platform Operating Model” is NOT the answer to everything! Excellent teams were delivering much, if not all of what is needed, Yet the leadership have proceeded to demolish them, making all the people redundant without a plan to go forward. You are losing trust as an employer, along with so many talented teams and people. Whatever happened to those Maersk values?
