Ventajas
- Culture of support: Engaged and kind colleagues - Flat organisation: You are valued and trusted as your own professional individual to make decisions of your own - Tangible values: Foundation owned company that assesses the ethics and transparency of all business decisions, makes you feel proud to work for Ramboll! Also, it's standing on its own feet since 1945 and it will not be bought by a bigger company although it has itself acquired smaller companies to develop its competence and offer. Independence like that is rare.
Desventajas
- Salaries can be lower than at competition as the company uses its profits to invest in research projects, employee support and philanthropy, but a genuine trade off is a healthier lifestyle. At the same time it seems to feed into really nice and balanced people joining the company, not a cut throat culture! - In the UK some seem to stick to their old school hierarchy habits from previous employment, hide behind the title and trickle down information and decisions rather than face their teams and listening to their day to day experiences and needs, specially in Business Enablement: Some mandatory modernisation on mindset and leadership skills there would be fantastic. - UK benefits could be more flexible: Other Ramboll countries offer voucher systems with cash value that work better for individuals with diverse needs and interests.
