Challenging place to work where there was absolutely no training program or process to get new employees up to speed. - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Northern Power Systems: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Northern is a great place to work if you want to learn the nuts and bolts of the Wind Turbine Industry. Several upper level employees have decades of experience and are savants in their respective disciplines. New cross functional teams mean that people from different departments can work together and gain an understanding of the entire business.

Retention. A combination of intermittent production and sales demands, and quite frankly marginal salary and benefits has thinned the team substantially, and people are pushed into roles they aren't necessarily prepared for. Seasonal work forces require constant re-training and talented folks who know their value can command a better wage elsewhere.

Product has great potential and employees believe they can help deliver a renewable energy solution. Casual work environment. Good salaries and benefits.

Upper management lives remotely and has lost the pulse of the Barre facility (Headquarters). Poor communication from upper management causes inefficiencies within the workforce. High turnover rate due to good employees not being treated as the most valuable assets and were laid off or left for other opportunities. Loyalty means nothing to this company. Lack of accountability and tendency by upper management to take shortcuts hampers the company's ability to be profitable. Core values are preached, but aren't truly followed (especially by upper management).
