Volvo Group reviews

Most employees are trying to go to a different Volvo Group division. Completely unorganized company. Not uncommon to take weeks for new employees to get all items needed for job. Seems to be very little direction. Management doesn’t seem to care about what employees have to say. Company doesn’t seem interested in retaining employees. Pay raises are horrible. Retirement pension going away completely.

Management turnover is crazy. Many have left within a couple of years and there are many more looking to leave.. We are on our third plant manager in as many years. Management developing personal relationships with hourly employees is nothing I have experienced before. The management cliques are strong and favoritism is quite obvious. Very few opportunities for advancement if you are black. Even though you are a current employee with experience, you will only get an interview if you know someone. I believe current employees with experience should be afforded the opportunity to have a conversation for opportunities. The racial makeup of the HR generalist is not reflective of the hourly employee population and there is limited trust for the HR department. Some people are terminated due to performance issues, some are reassigned. It's all about connections. If you are a salaried employee you may or may not be given formal performance objectives as merit increases are based on how well liked you are.
