Reputation - inside and out
Our reputation from the inside
The employees' opinion about the reputation of Novo Nordisk is measured every year in an online survey. In the survey, reputation is measured on various parameters such as social responsibility, emotional appeal, products and services, vision and management, financial results and work environment.
The latest survey (in the autumn of 2006) was carried out among Novo Nordisk’s employees in Denmark, England, China, US and Germany. Around 2,800 employees took the time to answer a web-based questionnaire.
On a scale from 1-100, where 100 is the best, the employees give Novo Nordisk a total score of 83.5 on average across the countries. A score above 80 is considered ’excellent’, it’s the platform of a life-changing career.
Our reputation from the outside
Novo Nordisk has the stated aim of attracting and retaining the very best employees. However, we also place great emphasis on your having the right personal qualities as a colleague and partner.
We maintain a professionally strong environment, with more than 300 PhDs in research and development. Our researchers benefit from our professional reputation with recognised research institutions and interesting organisations in many different countries. Moreover, our research and development departments enjoy close working partnerships with universities and other higher education establishments both in Denmark and abroad.
We invest a great deal in helping employees acquire knowledge through supplementary training. Similarly, we provide plenty of opportunities to participate in academic debate, such as the chance to publish your findings – in the form of research results, for instance – that you have achieved on your own or in collaboration with others.
