      Pros

      There is nothing worth mentioning

      Cons

      Terrible terrible management, there is no healthy work-life balance. You are expected to work overtime and on the weekends without pay. The workload is very very excessive. The company unrealistic goals and achievements are prioritised over employers mental health. There is no structure to the workplace and the type of work you are expected to do. Severely underpaid and very toxic work environment. If i could give 0 stars, i would.

      We’re sorry to hear your feedback about your time with Aker Systems. You experienced a time when Aker is growing at a fast pace. We have invested in growing our management team and our workforce, we are also creating more structure for our teams. We are working closely with our teams to make sure that we’re aware of any teams that are going through an extremely busy period and how we can support them through this. We acknowledge that people will, at times, work late but this is not to set a precedent for anyone that is part of the team. We appreciate that the start-up/high growth environment isn’t for everyone but hearing feedback like this makes us continue to want to do better for our people. We truly believe there needs to be a healthy work/life balance and we have already made a start to look at how we can offer this, including but not limited to remote/hybrid working and flexible hours. If you would like to discuss your feedback further then we’d welcome the opportunity to listen, please email hr@akersystems.com

      Pros

      Everyone, and I mean everyone, is so talented at what they do and the most accommodating to help in any way they can. Aker has created a friendly, community-spirited environment that is a complete pleasure to work in. It’s rare to find a place where high-level expertise and genuine kindness go hand-in-hand.

      Cons

      The bar for quality is very high, so it’s not a place where you can just "coast", you have to be comfortable being challenged. Additionally, because the culture is so collaborative, the consensus-building process can sometimes slow down momentum.

      Pros

      Working at Aker is an incredibly rewarding experience. The leadership team genuinely cares about employee well-being and professional growth. There’s a strong culture of collaboration and I’ve always felt supported in taking on new challenges. The workplace atmosphere is very positive and motivating with colleagues who are not only talented but also kind and approachable - including the CEO. It’s refreshing to be part of a team that’s forward-thinking and genuinely passionate about making a difference - I feel fortunate to work for a company that care so much.

      Cons

      I have nothing bad to say
