Pros

Good reputation, professional, skilled, dedicated employees, strong brand

Cons

I have not worked at Maersk Line. I recently interviewed for them, and completed three rounds of interviews, totalling 6 interviews. Feedback on their logical & personality tests was very positive (above average), and chemistry with the hiring manager was good. Ultimately, I was not offered the position, and was given no feedback whatsoever. The hiring manager, while offering to give my feedback, has been impossible to reach since.

Pros

Good company culture. Structured and process driven, like any other MNCs. Good on job training and the support from colleagues. Good compensation and benefits as well.

Cons

Due to work function the job is under 24/7 scheme. There is less work & life balance however company will compensate on the irregular working hours.

Pros

37 hours a week working hours and you can have flexible hours either come in late or early. If you are an international hired based in Copenhagen it will have more diverse people and great option of lunch menus (which is deductable from your salary). If you are an international hired based in Esbjerg than it will be the same as living in an oilfield campbase.

Cons

Before you decided to join, please considered for the 5th time because it will be a career suicide. Most of my international colleague decided not to put their time in this company as part of their resume. if you joined the company as international hired (or what they said expat) you still have to pay tax. Company does not pay for your medical or dental the country does and you better prepare to get in stuck with Danish medical system. Organisation is just to confuse to understand and no clear accountability or responsibility between department or business partners. Job description can be wide or it is only stating about activity per year without a clear understanding for goals. Project execution is weak in term of outcome quality, time deliverance and cost effectiveness (i.e. I have never seen an oil company that does not planned vs actual charts for drilling and completion day to day operation). SAP implementation is the worst things that happened. instead of build SAP around the business it is the other way around to built business around the SAP.
