Pros

It's the leader in a very nice industry. Age average around 30. Semi flexible hours. Nice for trainees.

Cons

Not for R&D engineers, but for Documentation Engineers. Its purpose is to execute tasks for the headquarters in Aarhus, those tasks that they don't want to do. Boring company. No career development strategy nor salary raising foreseen. Hierarchical structure. Don't listen to improvement ideas (I've given some). Could be doing the exact same thing from home.

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.
