Pros

Good pays for junior roles, although that's comparable to peer in upstream O&G Lavish with on-the-job benefits for employees Easy to enter new roles and gain skills Good gender balance Possibly best employer if you want to live in Norway and work 8.30 - 15.00 hassle-free

Cons

Slightly annoying self-serving rhetoric on values, which seldom matches practices and attitude of employees Overly bureaucratic, I mean for real! Over-staffed, which leads to intense office politics by staff with no meaningful task to accomplish Little accountability, no meritocracy whatsoever, yes-man culture Various cases of incompetent senior management Bluntly put it, a discriminatory organisation - Norsk are better paid and move on. Others are left vegetate
