Pros

Volvo offers relatively secure job opportunities. Its culture is changing but is still respectful and open in most cases. And the flexible system (if you are not working in shifts) is excellent to keep work/ private life in balance.

Cons

Career opportunities are limited. The Ghent site has become increasingly operational. Furthermore, salaries barely increase, bonuses are seldom paid and the structure is rigid. Especially office workers are little encouraged to walk the extra mile and industrial workers find it very hard to change their position (and climb the ladder, e.g.).

Pros

Really inclusive environment and most of campus is already with ABW - activity based workplace (flexible seating).

Cons

Sometimes due to the very inclusive environment, decisions can take a little longer.

Pros

Vacation, parental leave, cafeteria, DEI.

Cons

I feel like decisions are made by people not involved in processes which results in day to day activities becoming more and more difficult. Unable to schedule projects to save their lives. So many last minute tests and drop in testing, theres almost no point to schedule testing.
