Verbesserungsvorschläge

Employees are people. We provide funding for your operations, enabling access to lower-cost labor and more affordable products.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

International teams and some team-building events like airsoft games. However, some activities and practices in shared spaces felt unusual and not typical for an office environment.

Work-Life-Balance

flexi time was the only good thing

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Where your career is limited

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Frequent conflict between team leads, with egos getting in the way.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Ask any current or former colleague how this worked, and you’ll likely hear some interesting stories.

Arbeitsbedingungen

In previous reviews, IKEA was often treated as the main benchmark, with a constant focus on finding even cheaper furniture options. There were also concerns about workshop activities and the use of materials such as glue and chemicals within office spaces.

Kommunikation

It felt unengaging and lacked stimulation.

Gehalt/Benefits

2+ years of experience in purchasing, You speak English at C1 level or higher; German or Chinese is a plus, A gross monthly salary of at least EUR 2,362,- is offered.

Please do the math, how does this salary make sense given the requirements? Its a starting base - this is crazy, the person would be better on AMS

Gleichberechtigung

More man than others

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Equity and communication are noticeably lacking, and soft skills are inconsistent. External professional support would be advisable.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Karriere/Weiterbildung

This is a place for a brief stop, not a future, unless you’re comfortable watching your potential evaporate

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

1-3 people who are in their 40s and 60s.
The younger you are, the wage is too. And maybe if you are lucky enough, you could date someone in a higher position.

Arbeitsbedingungen

The offices are cramped and cheap Ikea, with copies of Forbes magazines featuring the cofounders placed around as decoration.
The logistics team works either in front of the toilets or in a small, windowless room and, unsurprisingly, they are among the lowest-paid employees

Kommunikation

Communication happens, but it rarely aligns with reality. HR, in particular, feels highly unstable and inconsistent.

Gehalt/Benefits

the other reviews speak for themselves

Gleichberechtigung

During my time with the company, I observed a consistent gap between how leadership presented their values and how employees were treated. Many staff members, myself included, were drawn in by genuine passion for the airsoft community, only to encounter compensation levels and working conditions that did not reflect that commitment. It was difficult to reconcile the enthusiasm employees brought with the limited investment the company appeared to make in their well-being. I can only hope that, at some point, Co-founders takes a clear and honest look at how their decisions affect the people who rely on this job for stability.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

the work itself could be fine but the toxic environment spoils it

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

valuable employees are not respected what is more they are chased away by being treated unwell: pushed to their limits and paid low while family and friends of the owners and brownnoses are being employed illegally for higher salaries with no tax

Verbesserungsvorschläge

show at least some interest in keeping the company going and replace the incompetent team leads
don't let your hr rep (the sole hr rep for 100 people) date young employees and bully fat people while dropping antisemitistic jokes

Arbeitsatmosphäre

adequate if management is not there to pester you about unimportant things
the office is loud cold dirty and toxic while homeoffice is frowned upon

Image

the owner is so hated worldwide it's hurting sales

Work-Life-Balance

you are expected to work during holidays on sick days and even in maternity leave

Karriere/Weiterbildung

youre best chance is to be fired and find another job

the little benefits employees had in the past were taken away

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

there are two older colleagues they are treated well

Vorgesetztenverhalten

lower management is a group of cheap unprofessional people who would never be employed by any other decent company
one of them recently was beaten up by an employee in China

Arbeitsbedingungen

development of products happens in the main office so it can be loud and disturbing in some cases dangerous

most colleagues lack basic communication skills let alone professional ones

Gleichberechtigung

Interessante Aufgaben

alternating

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The colleagues, a very young and open team from all over the world. When all founders are gone or in china, it actually was the most fun to work.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The founders and their non existent knowledge of the market and their inability to listen to reason.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Hire a external CEO, have all co founders step down from operational work and just get your money as silent shareholders.

Listen to the community, listen to your few experienced workers and team leads.

Stop firing everyone just because you mismanaged.
Stop hiring your girlfriends.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

They fired over 10 people last month , everyone feels doomed.

Image

Most products are not very well made, due to decisions to safe time or money by the founders. So the image at the target group is going down but they blame it on factors outside of their responsibility.

Work-Life-Balance

Depends on if you are good with the co-founders

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Not existent. Except for the rare occasion where all the team leads were sent to a training. Which didn't help much.

Gehalt/Benefits

Most positions are underpayed by industry standards and they just try to barely hold the minimum wage for the collective agreement always.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The teams and colleagues work well together, specially when left alone.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Most more experienced colleagues no matter if in age or knowledge or work time, get ignored.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

They lie to you on almost every occasion. And work to try to move everything to china. Also almost everytime a bad review pops up here one if the founders writes fake positive reviews to keep the balance.

Arbeitsbedingungen

In 3 years almost all company benefits were lost or cancelled.

Kommunikation

The co-founders communication and most of the team leads communication is abysmal.

Gleichberechtigung

They pretend to act equal to all, but racism, sexism and favoritism is rampant in the company.

Interessante Aufgaben

Only positive point about this company

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Work-Life-Balance

Kein Verständnis für work-life-balance, keine Förderung von Sport

Gehalt/Benefits

Gehalt ist hier eindeutig niedrig

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Kommunikation

Keine klare Struktur zu der Kommunikation

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The self confidence to seemingly never listen to the market.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

All of the above

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I dont think, they want to provide a good workplace, they have the means and they have been told what people want/need.
Profit before people.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Horrible, most people, think of quitting, HR is the reason why in many cases

Image

A few will tell you differently, but no one is truly happy.
Even people that have been there for a while are starting to get frustrated with the lack of well too many things to list.

Work-Life-Balance

Pretty good in some jobs, in others theres literally yelling and favorism and nobody cares

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Depending on department, but below average. Good if you are (again) involved with the founder.

Gehalt/Benefits

Decent. Good if you are in management, or involved with the founder.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Kollegenzusammenhalt

None, basically just infighting, cliques and so on. Forget counseling, HR is part of it and CEOs don't care.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

There are none

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Sexual innuendos, inappropriate language and you get fired for criticizing it.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Ranging from normal, to drastic. Ceo occupies offices you can fit 2 cars into, while being abroad most of the year, while office management (for example)(3 people) sit in one, a quarter of the size

Kommunikation

Not there, even employees that are close to leadership can't give clear instructions because everything changes after one CEO lunch meeting

Gleichberechtigung

There is one female teamlead and no poc.

Interessante Aufgaben

Depending on the profession.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Flexible working times

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Read the comments above

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Start working on improvements

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Used to be better. Atmosphere between employees is fine, but the management tries to lower it by reducing team building activities and other benefits.

Work-Life-Balance

Working times are flexible, usually it is not a problem to get days off. Work can sometimes become a lot, and the management takes a lot of time to react on increased workload.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Only if you are in a relationship with one of the CEOs.
If you show good results and work hard as an ordinary employee, you will still stay forever in your position. There are a bunch of team leads with questionable qualifications, that probably do nothing throughout the day. One of them is watching the screens of his team. On top of that he likes to yell at his team if they are not able to finish their tasks in time. So, once appointed as team lead you can do whatever you want, your position is protected. The lower-level employees have to do the real work, stay late and fear for their job for every minimal mistake, while team leads can crash whole projects without any consequences.

Gehalt/Benefits

Most of the employees are from Hungary, Slovakia or Czechia. Compared to the average salary in these countries, it is sufficient.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The most positive thing in the company, people are really nice and helpful.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Older people are not hired (probably too expensive).

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Totally unpredictable. Recently they cut food subsidies without anyone knowing. We had a card which you were able to use in almost every shop. We will now get a cupboard instead, where we have to pay for apparently fancy food. A salary reduction through the backdoor, as we lost the freedom of choice. They also like to micro manage everything and everyone, instead of trusting employees they have hired and let their creativity thrive. Decisions made are not properly communicated, nor discussed, usually just announced via Slack when everything is already irreversible. It is the free version of Slack, so announcements disappear after some time and are not traceable.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Until recently the company used to store dangerous batteries in the office.

Kommunikation

Does basically not exist, neither from the management nor between employees. Processes are often done parallel and only coordinated at a later step.

Gleichberechtigung

CEOs girlfriends just get a salary without really working. Actually most of them just stand in the way. So they have a better status then all of the male employees. For other women it is not that easy, as they really have to work and are sometimes subject to discriminatory comments.

Interessante Aufgaben

Not bad, nothing extraordinary. If you are a CEOs girlfriend you can do whatever you want, so for them it might be interesting to gain salary without actually working. They hire all of them, but they are rarely qualified for what they are appointed to, so other people usually have to take over their tasks. CEOs are the company owners, so they can of course hire whoever they want, but it would be beneficial if girlfriends wouldn't interfere in other peoples work, as it is an additional obstacle for those who have to deal with them.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

What I really like about the employer is how they recognize and acknowledge your successes. They provide constructive feedback and always seem eager to support you in various ways. Feeling wanted and respected for my knowledge and expertise is incredibly rewarding in a job.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Honestly, I can't pinpoint anything negative about the employer. I understand how complex it is to lead a company and support employees effectively. From my perspective, the CEOs are doing a fantastic job managing these challenges.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

One suggestion for improvement for the employer would be to maintain the strong relationships with employees and provide continuous feedback. This ongoing communication fosters a supportive environment and helps employees grow and excel in their roles.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The work atmosphere is very positive and friendly. Everyone supports each other, and there's a great sense of teamwork that makes work enjoyable every day.

Image

The company's image is incredibly positive; they truly stand for what they do. At work, I've never felt any disparity between the company's values and their actions. It's clear that they genuinely believe in their mission, and it reflects in everything we do.

Work-Life-Balance

The work-life balance here is really positive. There's a genuine emphasis on ensuring employees have time for their personal lives, which helps create a healthier and happier work environment.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

It's great to apply my knowledge and experience from previous studies and jobs in various fields here. However, I look forward to the opportunity to study something I'm truly interested in. I believe bringing that knowledge to the company could benefit us all.

Gehalt/Benefits

While the salary benefits could be better, I've noticed that since starting, the company recognizes my capabilities and potential. I'm confident that with time and hard work, my efforts will be rewarded accordingly.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The teamwork within my department is really good, and we're actively working to extend that same spirit of collaboration to other departments. It's exciting to see how our efforts are creating a more unified workplace overall.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

While I may not know many older colleagues within the company, I've noticed a mutual respect among everyone, regardless of age.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

The behavior of supervisors here is exceptionally positive. They are supportive, approachable, and always ready to offer guidance when needed. Their positive attitude contributes significantly to a conducive and uplifting work environment.

Arbeitsbedingungen

I'm completely satisfied with the working conditions here. Everything from the office environment to the facilities provided contributes to a comfortable and productive workspace.

Kommunikation

With many departments, learning how to communicate isn't easy, but we do everything we can to improve. Our dedication to better communication makes a big difference.

Gleichberechtigung

The company upholds equal rights, and I've never felt treated differently from others. Fairness is a cornerstone of our workplace culture, ensuring everyone has equal opportunities and treatment.

Interessante Aufgaben

The tasks here are always interesting, never boring, and constantly present new challenges. It keeps things exciting and ensures there's always room to grow and learn.
