Pros: Working at Global Focus, particularly in consulting roles, has been a positive experience. The teams are genuinely collaborative and supportive, making challenging projects feel achievable. There are consistent opportunities to learn new skills and work with diverse clients within the business services sector.

Pros: The team collaboration and project variety were excellent. I appreciated the autonomy given in my role as a Marine Engineer, and the company culture fostered a sense of camaraderie. The hybrid work setup offered good work-life balance, allowing me to manage personal commitments effectively. The location in Møre og Romsdal provided beautiful surroundings.
Cons: There were occasional communication gaps from senior leadership regarding strategic direction, which could be confusing. Career progression felt somewhat slow, with limited clear paths for advancement. While pay was competitive, benefits could be more comprehensive.
