Pros

The pros are few and far between with this corporation. They underpay, will promise annual salary review and cancel it year after year due to "budget cuts", take away other important benefits such as 401(k) contributions, etc. which has led to a major decline in employee morale plant-wide. Lots of long-time employees are leaving for other opportunities.

Cons

This company will add more and more to the role, deny raises (even the "guaranteed" raises such as annual salary reviews and the blue collar production raises for new hires based on length of employment etc). They are now cutting their COST OF LIVING RAISES and you have to "earn" a cost of living raise by taking on more responsibilities and positions (which they call "skill points"). The health benefit cost is increasing every year and the coverage is not great. The culture is becoming more toxic with every year that passes and employee morale is extremely low.

Pros

Relaxed environment. If you don't want to work, this is the company for you.

Cons

The most convoluted business structure I've ever experience. This company is divided into 3 major business units, which is then sub-divided into smaller units. I am a part of Danfoss Power Solutions - Fluid Conveyance. It seems that all of these different units operate in a complete silo. There is no overall, comprehensive global QMS or SAP training programs. They have no change management system; all of their documents for quality are in one location, regardless of the revision. No distinction between one business unit to the next. Documentation uses abundance of acronyms and vague language. A simple business process is not clearly defined nor is there official training. Finally, the specific plant I work at, has one of the worst quality cultures I have ever seen. The operators and operations management do whatever they want. Most of the operators don't even know what a SOP is, but management changes the SOP and expects operators to just magically know it. No training, no verification, no accountability. No division of responsibility. Quality is constantly put under the gun for things engineering should own. These people don't even know that you need to shut a tool down when it is malfunctioning.
