Pros

*P & C "good" at making Vestas appear as an attractive place to work for *Easy to get Onsite opportunities for "no good reasons" and you can therefore enjoy a tour to most of European countries *Their Mission and Vision is impressive to read ;-) (I would be surprised if they achieve it !! )

Cons

#Obsolete and antiquated tools with lot of flaws- It's annoying to work with the tools and processes used here. #Problems here (be it technical work related or managerial)are solved slowly either by a temporary work-around or by some unnecessary, extravagant expenditure to suppress the problem for time being until it arises again #A non-goal oriented , un-professional and slow approach to work in most of the departments #As written by someone in an earlier review-its really a good place for slackers but if you want to learn and grow in career then this is not at all a place to be.Infact I would suggest its better to unlearn most of the things you learnt here #Lot of un-necessary meetings for un-necessary reasons #Huge variation in compensation of employees

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.
