Pros

DNV is a ISO company. As said, all practices are as per ISO standard. Which will be a great learning opportunity and enviroment to live and work in. Well to get a feel, Norway has the highest GDP. I already had my lunch cover with buffets almost everyday. Employees are really pamper there. I was really inspire to be part of DNV at first impression when i just join. There are many people who are serving over 10 yrs. When I spoke with the Norwegians, they dun have much slang which will be a good thing for Singaporeans, Hence really easy to communicate. Ipod Xmas gift for every employee. Period. That says it all. ^^

Cons

There are just as much competitiors. Jobs are seasonal. Therefore your learning rate is as per the number of jobs coming in.This is due to its business nature. Its not really for someone looking for a exciting and challanging career but more for people who like to lead a blissful life. Workaholics stay out. There are too many darn meetings on updating on DNV's current position in the market. Too many brandings and motivation thing going around to get employees constantly motivated to stay. Can be quite annoying after a while. Your overtime pay eligibility is as per product per profit percentage which can be a double edge knife.

Pros

Culture, work life balance, health benefits, 401k match, sick leave. The work is interesting and the people are great. There are many different business areas, so depending on your expertise, you could move around within the company if you want.

Cons

Silos, career development can be unclear and poorly managed depending on who you report to, unclear job expectations depending on your management, unclear path to progress or promotion depending on management, long term employees are paid less and have not been brought up to market value. The cons are more so related to upper management not advocating or helping their team progress. I’ve had some managers who are wonderful, and others that were not when it came to development. It really depends on the team and the department you are part of. The company is huge and it’s easy to get pushed to the side if you do not advocate for yourself and build an internal network.
