Toxic work environment for people of colour

Pros

Bonus program was a great way to balance out your salary as Sandvik underpays its employees

Cons

Senior Management and Top Management are Scandinavian and white. Treat people of colour like they are inferior and dont belong I witnessed Indian nationals being skipped on promotions because they are from India, with top management saying "He's Indian, he should feel lucky he is in the senior position he is now" to calling all people of colour refugees. Salary and benefits are far below standard in alot of countries. You are expected to travel alot, sometimes three times a week on an internation long haul flights, thats 6 flights lastin 8 hours or longer a month, and you are expected to fly economy class. The organization structure and strategic direction changes every six months. They have a very high attrition rate, not surprisingly.
