Volvo Group reviews

Volvo is constantly restructuring and still seemed unsure of how they wanted to structure the delivery. Also in order to secure additional savings, opportunities in North America are being reduced as they are sent overseas to BPIC. Once the restructuring becomes more stable, I believe it will again be the great company that I enjoyed for many years.

Volvo is a massively bloated bureaucracy. The added complexity and friction are well-intentioned, but only serve to keep as many people employed as possible in order for middle management to increase their sense of importance and status within the company. There are far too many people whose job serves no productive purpose at all whatsoever. They call meetings, introduce unproductive trivial processes and add unnecessary paperwork that preserve the perverse incentives that feed the monumental bureaucracy. The onslaught of red tape overload steals time, leaves the few people who are actually trying to be productive emotionally exhausted and undermines the organization's ability to perform actual work.
