UL Solutions Employee Perspectives

Why is our mission of working for a safer world important to you? 

We get to be involved in the entire research and development process with our customers — sometimes when things are just a concept. It makes you feel proud to help show that when a product reaches the market, it will be tested to meet safety standards for the public to use. It’s great to get paid to break things to make the world a safer place!

What is the best thing about working at UL Solutions?

The best thing about working at UL Solutions is the flexibility. No one has stopped me when I have had a good idea, encountered a new business opportunity, or identified a new structural opportunity. No one has ever said, “Holger, that’s not your job.” They may provide feedback and explain any challenges they foresee, but I have always been able to implement new processes and initiatives.

We have the skills and agility to deliver results quickly. No one ever says, “That’s not my job.” We work together to get the job done.
