Pros

There are still some good people there - but few and far between.

Cons

Company culture is poor. Leadership is adept at creating a passive-aggressive employee fear tactic of "seeking professional excellence elsewhere". They do not listen well. Often times, they react with vitriol. They often go on hear-say when it comes to internal issues and conflict resolution rather than taking the time to find the rest of the story. Partiality and favoritism runs amuck. People come and go without a word to the rest of the organization. Good people are routinely exited. It's strange - the people who are often middle to older aged. Somebody is always in the crosshairs and gun sights. The company is consistently trying to find and redefine its identity. The company was severely hampered by the pandemic and cannot build or ship product - with no end in sight. Many companies are facing the same challenges. But the communication to employees and customers left much to be desired. Unfortunately, this will likely hinder growth and trust for years to come.

Pros

I have been with Nilfisk for 15 years and have seen many changes. The current leadership is committed to making this company great. The culture over the last several years has transformed into an enviroment of teamwork and collaboration to do the righ thing and provide excellent products and services to the dealer network and end users. I feel strongly that any employee can have their voice heard about an idea or suggestion that can improve the company. I have seen silos, politics and turf wars and most of these walls have been broken down over the last few years as a result of the current leadership. Nilfisk offers many paths to develop your career and your income if you are committed to working hard. The company offers outstanding benefits and there are many employees that have been here for over 20 to 30 years.

Cons

The perfect company does not exist. I have many friends that constantly complain about their jobs and their company. I am not one of them. I recognize there are imperfections with Nilfisk and there always will be. Perfection is the goal and it cannot be achieved. Overall, I have nothing to complain about.
