Pros
- This is a company that puts its workforce at the top of the value chain. Personal health and your mental and physical well being is genuinely the top priority for them. They are not there to exploit you for maximum performance like some other employers. They want you to feel happy and motivated for your job. One of the key priorities for our department is that you have fun at work.
- Company culture revolves around honesty, transparency, respect, dignity and wellbeing. You will feel this from day 1. Very scandi, but in a good way.
- Clear expectations, but not expected to over commit to an unattainable goal. You will not be expected to do any overtime at all, unless something very critical has come up.
- Competent management with a great vision for a fossil free future and for growth in all areas, priorities are set transparently, they are leaders rather than managers.
- You will be empowered to make your own choices and set your own goals, especially within business development. This allows for entrepreneurship and ultimately better opportunities to be generated.
- Very well paid, good benefits including private healthcare and a very generous pension scheme
- Company has a strong financial position, and expands in a healthy way.
- Lots of support available from within different units from within the business.
Cons
- Lack of a strong commission/bonus structure means that business developers are not incentivised to go above and beyond
- HR can be slow, and rigid. They will be the ones limiting your payrise or having delayed responses
- Career progression should be planned and discussed more
