Great Pension, Lack of being able to make decisions

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great pension, bonus scheme good for high performers, if you have an idea you get support to follow it through if it makes business sense. Regional offices usually have a great atmosphere to work in though HQ can be like working in a graveyard in some places.

Cons

MO cannot make a decision with anything and when they do it's too late. Unable to get rid of empire builders in HQ. Lack of encouraging positive communication between offices from top. If you're outside HQ then you have to work extra hard to be part and stay involved in a global project. Old dinosaurs roam the HQ making "fresh" ideas difficult to push through. Redundancy process in all offices was handled very poorly, lack of communication and too many lies. Lack of transparency and understanding from HR, especially corporate. Values no longer mean anything since Moller passed away, real shame.

Business Outlook

Pros

The position offers a great opportunity to learn a lot about the operations of a shipping company. Overall a good experience for those that are starting on the business.

Cons

It might become a bit hard to climb up in the corporate ladder because once you reach a certain degree of expertise you are most likely to be kept on that position since it is crucial for the optimum performance of the operations.
