Pros

Danfoss is a global company focused on becoming #1 in the markets they serve. They are achieving their goal by acquiring companies with the products needed to complement existing product lines. Danfoss is strong in engineering with an eye to leading in the digital world. Innovation is valued. There are opportunities for both domestic and international travel. Benefits are good.

Cons

Management forgets the people side of mergers and acquisition. The organization changes constantly. It is not uncommon for an employee to have a new manager every year, in some cases more often. Employees’ work histories and past contributions are not valued.

Sauer-Danfoss 2009

Pros

Sauer- Danfoss allowed employees much leeway in attaining job goals. Most of the time I enjoyed the challanges. Often it was fun. The salary was decent. The benefits were excellent until the company started cutting things.

Cons

I retired in 2009. Layoffs, reduction of benefits, and hardening of HR's attitude convinced me to retire and claim the excellent retirement benefits while they were still available. Sauer- Danfoss was sold and taken private by Danfoss Corporation. Many of the people I worked with have left or retired since the Danfoss takeover. When I've asked recent retirees how it is working for Danfoss, they will usually reply with a roll of the eyes.
