Electrolux Home Appliances Sdn. Bhd. (Global Shared Service Center)

Gets a bit boring and repetitive

Lack of promotion long time of taking action

Company is small in Canada

Expected to work long hours. I normally work an average of 50 hours a week. Most others I talk to work at least that as well.

can not trust the people you work with (meaning back stabbers), absolutely NO communication with in management, the company operates and think like a small company and is always playing catch up with there competitors, at least always 3 years behind

very complex, too many systems and organizational rules to follow.

No time to learn about the products

Not too innovative lack of consistency on company objectives, tend to change objective every year which makes it complicated to go all towards the same direction decision making tends to be slow but at the same time expect quick results Very old fashion in several areas, they listen to new ideas but they are hardly implemented. There is no proper onboarding process, too hard for consultants to understand Electrolux culture

Too many middle management Too many expatriate top management

typical large industrial company, a bit slow/heavy, male engineer dominated. The compelling vision of Jonas Samuelson is not yet really reflecting the culture in many parts of the organization that remains quite traditional in hierarchies and culture.
