Thank you for your review and we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed working here. We pride ourselves on our flat hierarchy and the empowerment of our employees. We are of course very proud to be a Swiss company but with a presence in 101 countries we are also very international and we persevere with a global but local culture.

Pros

-People here are great, I made friendships that go beyond the job. -The benefits are pretty good, employee contributions are on the lower end. I also appreciate the PTO day for community service and the fitness reimbursement plan. -I love the employee events like birthday treats (when they still had them) and the holiday party

Cons

-There is little to no internal promotion opportunities anymore. When roles have opened up, they have gone to external candidates, or they bring someone in from the location in Europe. -Patchy communications from corporate, as well as corporate boasting the record-breaking profits on the internet, and then our bonuses would get cut - left a bad taste in everyone's mouth. -Salaries are pretty frugal -Senior management seem to be in a micromanagement mindset and caring about the wrong things -HR and management have made some bad choices when it comes to employees lately that I don't agree with
