Pros

A.P Moller Maersk is a big brand name and world’s biggest shipping and logistics company with proud history but Maersk Line UK Ltd is an embarrassment and destroying the great legacy of A.P Moller Maersk. Free fruits, coffee and if there’s a cyber attack, then there’s free lunch too. Biweekly free drinks in cafeteria.

Cons

Very unprofessional environment to work in. Too much time wasted in unnecessary meetings rather than doing actual work. Managers aren’t capable enough to effectively lead a team which demotivates the subordinates. Probation period is 6 months and superiors constantly bully you over probation period with indirect threats of sacking you. No respect for Data Protection. HR Managers are useless and never bother to understand employees grievances but they just try to cover up issues.
