Pros

As with most companies, there are always some good co-workers. Work balance not too bad, pay ok,

Cons

Number one problem: hire and fire, hire and fire, repeat. I have seen more than a dozen engineers, sales people, product support, HR people hired and fired over a two to three year period. And, almost immediately, new people are hired with a slightly different job title to do the same work as the person fired.

Pros

Decent pay, benefits, lots and lots of company parties and days off. Acceptable workplace conditions.

Cons

Management has no clue as to how to be a success in North America. Danish management dislikes customers, treats them badly. The biggest problem is the employment revolving door. Constantly hiring and firing people, changing job descriptions for essentially the same job. More than 30 people have been hired and fired in Loves Park over 5 years, but new jobs seem to be created all the time. Constant shell game of eliminating a job, then recreating the same job under a different name.

Pros

Decent enough benefits package, although it's gotten gradually worse since I've been with the company.

Cons

Company seems to enjoy changing for the sake of change. Every 2-3 years it seems there is an entirely new strategy being driven by management, the current being "Core & Clear". I've also seen an aversion for Management to promote from within. I myself have been passed over for several promotions, despite being labeled in performance reviews as a "top performer".
