Not so innovative. By be larger, is very hard change some processes, for example: manage projects. Agile for example, is a Taboo yet.

Thank you for your review! It always nice to hear how colleagues see the importance of our company values and that they feel Yara offers growth opportunities. As in many other big companies, it is also true that processes may take some time to change, given the impact they may have globally :-)

Thank you for your review and absolutely all true. As Yara is first of all a Norwegian company, and as a part of a Scandinavia culture, it is important to find the right balance between private and working life. In this respect we invite our employees to address their concern with their managers or HRBPs if anyhow they feel an increase of their working load :-)
