Pros

I worked with some INCREDIBLY smart and capable colleagues. Engineers who have so much excitement and good will that it’s bursting out of their fingertips! The engineers and colleagues on the bottom of the ladder treat each other with respect and compassion. The pay and benefits were above average. And the product that Lego builds is such a good thing for the world!

Cons

It was the worst year of my career. I’ve never been so mistreated by a manager or had so much exposure to political drama and power fighting as I did during that year. It is impossible to work at this company without feeling the fight for power that is happening in the upper rungs.

Pros

You do meet nice and very intelligent people. The first honeymoon months can be great because of what the brand represents for childhood memories. Today the company does well so there is big bonous pay.

Cons

Toxic culture in some departments. People leaders have no skills nor leadership background to manage people. You will find a lot of personal pressure - if you treat you manager like a god, you are treated nice. If not, unlucky you. They don't care about people and do not develop people - if you want to grow in your job you are told to leave and they just take someone now from so many applications. Biggest disappointment in my very long career.

LEGO has lost its way

Pros

Amazing colleagues Wonderful product Fantastic brand recognition

Cons

Amazing colleagues - who get frustrated and take their talents elsewhere when it becomes clear that they will never be able to grow or bring fresh ideas to life within this highly political company Wonderful product - that they ceased to innovate decades ago and is now rapidly losing ground to a) cheaper competitors and b) digital experiences with a smaller footprint and greater novelty Fantastic brand recognition - but unfortunately, a company stuck in rural Scandinavia, with most design management being locals without diversity training or understanding of other cultures, is a company that will never truly be global.
