      Novelis was a good company, when the company cared about the employees.

      Pros

      The relationships, that have been built over the years, keep employees around.

      Cons

      The Executives are making big $ and the workers are keeping the company afloat while their pay and benefits are declining. At one time, Novelis valued their employees. This is no longer the case. Employees are afraid to speak the truth for fear of losing their jobs. Matrix organization is not working. People in Atlanta office, with no experience, are directing employees with 10+ years of experience.

      Poorly run company with aspirations of grandeur.

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits. Overall, it is a decent place to work if you do not have aspirations of advancing beyond the role you were hired for. During the recruiting process, they will tell you about examples of people who got promoted quickly. What they don't tell you is its only a handful of people who leave a trail of bodies in their wake to climb to the top to make face time with higher management.

      Cons

      This is a non-publically traded company owned by an Indian company. With this comes some politics of keeping the parent company happy. This company over the span of 4-5 years has seen many management changes. HR does not work for the employees but provides risk management to justify the firing of employees who were there before a particular management change and to justify the hiring of the incumbent management's friends and associates. Novelis is essentially where careers go to die.
