Used to be a great company with lots of nice people, sadly it only has gone downhill since a year.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Weird feeling when you walk in the mostly empty office. Since the last re-org in August most people seemingly have lost faith in the company and only do what is necessary anymore.

Since the shift to mostly defense and intelligence and the abundance of re-orgs, most people you ask won't tell you that the are proud to work for Balckshark. That used to be quite different.
Work-Life-Balance
This was always great and still is. No working on weekends and no need for lots of over hours, very flexible and family friendly.
Gehalt/Benefits
Ok if you compare it in Graz. But they could pay more given that the company is competing on a global scale and is moving towards mostly defense and intelligence use cases.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
This is not a real topic in the company.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Used to be great, but so many experienced and nice people left in the last twelve months. Nowadays people are keeping their head down and are mostly looking out for themselves.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
You can't trust the c-level anymore. They are mostly busy with re-organizing the company every three months and finding new names for things we are working on since years. You can provide feedback but usually doesn't change anything, very frustrating.
Middle management is a handful of nice people that try to keep the ship afloat.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Nice new office in the city center, well equipped.
Kommunikation
Company is now organized in two silos with almost no communication between them. Leadership is presenting their version of the truth once per month, don't seem to care about what people say anymore.
Interessante Aufgaben
Tech is very interesting!!
