Employee Stories

Normet Employee – Collaboration is the key

“We work in close collaboration with the customer, and creatively develop, new products every day. Being a technology leader, that's a must for us” says Raymundo, who sees first-hand how innovations are benefiting engineering, manufacturing and mining in Latin America.

Normet Employee – An inspiring work environment

Senni Taavitsainen – A Summer in Keilaranta

"I say that I got lucky because now that I am immersed in my master’s degree studies, I did not want to lower my standards when it came to my summer job. In fact, I told myself at the beginning of my job search that anything less than what I wanted and thought I deserved would not be accepted".

Petra Turunen – Logistics

"During the first couple of days, I got an introduction to general safety, driving a forklift, and my job description. I got a really warm welcome when I came to the logistics department, and it warmed my heart".

Juho Mark - Summary of my summer at Normet and future directions

"Testing the application that I developed during the summer in line production was a successful experiment that provided a lot of new information and ideas for future developments. I was positively surprised at how well the line production workers got involved in application testing and development".

Juho Mark - Diving Deeper to the Project

"After the completion of the first views and versions of the application, close cooperation began with the end users of the applications, in particular the installers. It was important to me that the app was as easy to use as possible and that users found it really useful, so the views and features were constantly evolving based on feedback from installers".

Juho Mark - First Day at the Job

"My first day at work started with the safety representative’s comprehensive safety induction. During that induction, I and a fellow summer trainee and got an introduction to Normet Iisalmi facilities, working procedures and safety policies & practicalities. From the induction, it was clear to see that safety is Normet’s first priority".

Constanza Flores Rios - An International Perspective

"In my opinion, the best thing about working at Normet is a working atmosphere. Everyone is taking their job seriously and they have a lot of things to do, but there is still a good and relaxed flow. I also feel like everyone is equal and valued here. Summer trainees are also given responsibility and they are part of the team as well as everyone else".
