Pros

Incredibly relaxed environment - you define your own tasks. Colleagues start leaving the office at 2:00pm. No consequence in most cases for underperformance or no performance at all.

Cons

No direction or guidance, let alone coaching. People scamble to invent loads of petty projects themselves just to keep their jobs. Performance not recognised. Silo culture. Awfully lacking leadership and competence in the organisation (something not understood in Danish culture perhaps). All about politics not real work. Jante law prevails.

Pros

Decent pay, benefits, lots and lots of company parties and days off. Acceptable workplace conditions.

Cons

Management has no clue as to how to be a success in North America. Danish management dislikes customers, treats them badly. The biggest problem is the employment revolving door. Constantly hiring and firing people, changing job descriptions for essentially the same job. More than 30 people have been hired and fired in Loves Park over 5 years, but new jobs seem to be created all the time. Constant shell game of eliminating a job, then recreating the same job under a different name.
