Volvo Group reviews

-upper management does not get along; lacking strong leadership-- there's always another dept to blame -despite being a part of a global company, mobility within the volvo group is limited. even within the plant itself, most people have been in the same role or dept. for 3 or more years- employees are not encouraged to grow by getting exposure to other areas of the business. -senior union employees have a strong influence over management. Creating work standards and enforcing discipline is extremely hard- even for simple things like absenteeism, drug/alchohol violations—it’s very hard to fire a union employee which is sad when there are a lot of good people out there who want jobs. some employees in the union seem to take their good job for granted. -lack of investment in the plant and IT systems makes improving and competitng in the 21st centruy a challenge

huge management system, hard to get voice heard
