Good Company for better not to join it for some years

Hrbp

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I would say that they pay into the market , the benefits are above the market, and in general terms it could be a stable job.

Cons

The company is getting bigger and more complex, as a result they are building a global service center in Berlin. On one hand the company want to implement new systems and process, and on the other hand everybody is new and with a very strong ego. As a result there is a mess on everything that creates a terrible atmosphere because everybody is looking to show result no matter the consequences. If you join the company be ready to be in a very disorganized organization, so you would like to be very tolerant to the chaos, be ready for very high egos in the offices.

Pros

The company is like one big family. Great work environment and very interconnected.

Business Outlook

Pros

Salary is fine, team is nice.

Cons

The turnover rate is huge, a lot of employees are leaving the company due to: - nonexistent career development. There are no opportunities to develop one's position for a better pay/role. - lack of personal development. The company motto "Make yourself grow" is not appropriate. - outdated home office policy. According to the German Law, working outside Germany is possible, with time limitations. The company forbid his workforce, mainly international to work from their homeland. Especially during and after corona this has been perceived as lack of understanding, flexibility and appreciation by the employees.
