Extremely poor management in Denmark

Pros

- The company invests in technical training and personal development courses. - Access to global resources and advanced technology.

Cons

- Extremely poor management in Denmark with a lack of leadership, communication and decision-making skills. - Local teams are led primarily by temporary Middle Eastern managers who show little integration with Danish workplace culture or concern for long-term team welfare. - Managers are often focused solely on short-term personal targets and bonuses, leading to unrealistic workloads and a disregard for Danish work-life balance principles. - A noticeable disconnect between local workforce needs and management actions due to the rotational nature of leadership positions.
