Pros

-Good healthcare -Can be a great teamwork environment with the guys on the floor

Cons

-Morale extremely bad -Changing hours/days/time with little to no advance notice -Hard to move up -Many benefits eliminated: tuition reimbursement, Christmas present/party, took away cafeteria -Lots of layoffs and anyone not laid off yet is looking for other work to keep their family fed -I was excited to work for this multi-national company on the cutting edge of wind technology. Now I want out before it completely falls apart.

Pros

Vestas has been at the cutting edge of wind turbine technology for quite some time. They are industry leaders at the global level.

Cons

Culture has been eroding significantly over the past few years. Too many organizational changes, all with the focus on making the shareholders more 'happy,' to the detriment of the employees who have the actual ability to make the work happen. Profit is the only thing that matters at Vestas nowadays and, therefore, several regions that are seemingly less profitable than other are essentially left out to dry. There was always a huge amount of focus on the changing market characteristics, but nearly zero action to make internal changes, either to technology or commercial strategies, in order to improve competitiveness against other WTG OEMs.
