Volvo Car USA Quality Department Employee Reviews

What do you like best about the leadership team?

Leadership Reviews

Honest, fair, caring, approachable, an open-door policy

They are very clear with their vision

They prioritize work life balance.

The VCUSA management team is excellent. The Gothenburg executive management team leaves a lot to be desired.

I like how they communicate to the organization about what and why they do what they do.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership Reviews

ADA policy & governing regs are NOT followed (disability accommodation). Documentation by drs & PX dismissed medical opinions & statements of fact. PX ultimatum of an unreasonable/ineffective "flexibility" or separation process. Result=Health declined & now risk stroke/heart attack every day onsite

What is the best part about your compensation package?

Compensation Reviews

Volvo's investment into my future (retirement).

The 401K match is excellent

The amount of vacation days.

The vehicle program, but the company needs to subsidize the lease car program to keep prices low. It should be a true benefit. If the company wants to really promote BEVs, the should be offered at deeply discounted prices and lease rates to employees.

If we include the CBV program, I would highlight that as our best part. If not, I would choose our merit and bonus structure.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Compensation Reviews

I have to choose between my mental & physical health or keeping my job w/risk of death weekly. I am protected by ADA but PX is violating. "Alternative accommodation" offered does not qualify as such as it is ineffective. Maintaining mental & physical health is more valuable than more monetary comp.

I would feel better if I was compensated appropriately in accordance with my skill level with my team. I have discovered that there are members in the department with less skills and knowledge that are compensated better.

For the amount of responsibilities I undertake, I am not compensated fairly. I was informed by by superiors and PX that I do not have enough time with the company to qualify for a higher pay even though I can tackle and accomplish tasks as well as an employee who has been with the company for years.

It is widely known and discussed that Volvo pays less that other Auto OEMs. At a certain point a choice must be made mission vs compensation.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Team Reviews

ability to collaborate, share and be open with each other.

Experience and expertise in different areas / diversity in experiences and knowledge makes us stronger as a whole. I value some supportive team members who really care about my & others' wellbeing. Team workload is far too heavy, so limited opportunity to build trust and extend help to others.

They collaborate very well. They share knowledge and information freely

We have a talented group with a variety of experience.

My team is excellent, quick to respond and support Retailers and customers.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

Team Reviews

I would think more focus would be highly beneficial to the team. I believe we could work better together if we had better direction on how to utilize our time when many things need to be completed.

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Environment Reviews

People oriented. Volvo's culture is about the people and makes each person feel important to making the Brand successful.

My experience getting to know one of my Swedish counterparts (virtually), learning about their culture and values, sharing knowledge, ideas, and discovering commonalities, and creating one of the best, trusting, working relationships/friendships I've experienced. We learn a lot from each other.

Very diverse group. Lots of knowledge and experience

We are good at helping each other when needed.

We get things done in the region, despite Gothenburg being so slow and unresponsive.

What makes you most happy at work?

Outlook Reviews

My opportunity to work for Volvo and the opportunity to meet new people that are also excited about the Volvo brand.

When I am able to be my authentic self and thrive in my work deliverables and personal accomplishments in an environment that is most encouraging of the same, for me. These environments vary for different people. When I am able to assist with my expertise where others cannot or choose not to.

When I have a minor victory and the acknowledgment from my team for the win

The people I work with.

I am most happy at work when I see our team overcome the challenges were faced with. When put in a difficult spot, achieving our goals regardless of the roadblocks is satisfying.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Outlook Reviews

We need to make cars that customers want, not make cars that we think they want. What works in Europe does not work in the US.

All work requests should be funneled through our manager since he has the most knowledge of our workloads. Often upper management will bypass the proper channels and send us scrambling with random requests. No one has enough time, and work is not prioritized well.
