Not a bad place to work

Pros

Good benefits. Easy to get overlooked.

Cons

Complicated internal politics. Executive management and direction changes every 3 years. Helps to be Norwegian. Strategic direction is suboptimal and "one size fits all" for different countries and cultures.

Thank you for giving us a review. With Yara's new corporate strategy we aim to be the crop nutrition company for the future. This sets a clear direction, and makes it easier to define what's the focus in Yara.
