Working for international company

Working in production environment is exciting but challenging at times when daily targets are not met due to reasons beyond my control. The relationship we have in plant is a two-way, top to bottom and bottom up. I have learnt that working for international company when approval is required it takes longer as it need to be approved abroad. I enjoy most in the Automotive when there is new technology introduced.

Pros: Always abreast of the technology
Cons: When recession comes, automotive feels the pinch first before any other industry

Continuous improvement for personal and professional growth

My job currently is at the outbound department, responsibilities are currently the dispatching of parcels in a good way and ensuring that the correct parts reach the intended customer. My experience in working in all the departments of the warehouse has allowed me to have an overall understanding of the warehouse and the different job functions within the operation. working in different department has allowed me to interact with various co-workers who do very different job functions giving me the opportunity to learn from co-workers on the different specialized jobs but also allowing me to build good working relations with my co-workers. the part i enjoy most about my job is the opportunity for me to be given the opportunity to be involved with continuous improvement i can challenge myself with improving my current way of working and also have a positive impact on the operations of the company.

Pros: working environment is good
Cons: operation sometimes require long working hours not much opportunities for growth

Excellent Training and Development

Volvo are serious about their Values, not just lip-service. Day usually starts with team meeting to discuss any issues which require management support. Relationship is transparent and co-operative. I like the fact that co-operation is encouraged with our colleagues in the global Volvo world. Skype is a key tool used by all at Volvo. I have learnt that diversity truely leads to better solutions and helps with professional and personal development.

Pros: A global company which makes all employees feel part of the global team. Excellent training and Volvo Group University.
Cons: Bonuses are not market related.
