LEGO A/S Denmark - Denmark location
Positives:
+ Great product that kids of all ages (1-99) all around the world like and will want to talk to you when you say you work for LEGO
+ Healthy work life balance
+ Company really cares about it's employees (not just on paper)
+ Family owned
+ Huge emphasis on doing this in legal, ethical ways
+ Profit gets reinvested in renewable energy and similar projects and in significant percentage given to good causes
+ Plenty of work for IT people in different parts of organization (take your pick...)
+ Relocation is handled/helped by the company
+ Most of the areas are quite international
Negatives:
- If you do not get hired for CPH office, your workplace will be Billund on Jutland which is boooooooring (good if you are a parent)
- Weather sucks in Denmark, so if you come from somewhere more south you will complain
- Like in any big company, promotions, implementation of ideas ect can be based both on rational reasons like contribution, ROI and office politics (depends on departments)
- Some areas might be more amateurish than you are used to in IT solution oriented companies (SAAS and similar)...but you can view it as places for improvement
Disclosure: I have worked and am working at LEGO as an IT-ish engineer for 5+ years.
Feel free to ask questions.
- Cazafr 5y agoI've been looking into working there for quite some time. Is there a possibility of working remotely if you're on an IT team ?
- lasciastare 5y agoFrom what I know, you can't. I'm guessing you are asking if you can reside in another country. They do have liberal work from home policy but you will be hired in Denmark and that means you have to be residing in Denmark and have valid Danish Yellow (social security) card.
- Cazafr 5y agoDisappointing but if relocation is interesting I might pursue the opportunity further down the line, thanks for the reply.
