If you like a fancy job-title, move here. If you like to solve problems, stay away
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
You can have a good time while you are working there. Lot's of nice, interesting people there to socialize with.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
It is run quite bad, it's moving left and right (but hardly forward), and it's kind of trying to find out what the company should be doing in the future.
If you are a manger, are working in marketing, or worked for another "cool" company, then Climeworks is a place to collect another "important" job title. If you are a specialist, and really like to get things done, then this is the wrong place, because then you have to work for those job-title and company-name hunters.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Go through the Org-Chart. Clean it up. Simplify the structures.
Make sure, the managers are doing their job well. Listen to the workers.
Learn how to run a company, learn from the mistakes!!!
Arbeitsatmosphäre
It has been better. There several problems brewing.
Image
So far, very well. The company spends a lot of resources to present itself and stay in the news.
Work-Life-Balance
You are expected to work more than the 42 hours. Reward is limited.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
If you have some good sounding names in your CV, and are willing to elbowing your way through, then you can move ahead. It's a bit of a shark tank; if that's your thing, go ahead.
Gehalt/Benefits
If you can sell yourself well, than you will get a good salary.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
It is not bad, but I would expect more from a company like Climeworks
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Mostly good within the teams, sometimes also between members of different teams. But the company is fragmented. You will find friends.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
The dividing line is not between young and old, but between managers and specialists
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Surely depends on the team you are in. The company grew fast, and many leader positions are occupied by people, not suited for the position. There is no company culture on leadership, every leader does, what he did in his old job.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Old building, but will move in the future. Office furniture is okay. Shared desks. IT is very helpfull; tools are a bit chaotic.
Kommunikation
Communication is good, but the whole company lives in a bubble. Critical questions to the leadership are pushed aside.
Gleichberechtigung
DEI is a big topic at Climeworks, and they put some effort into it
Interessante Aufgaben
There would be many interesting tasks, and problems to solve. But the company is disorganized, and you will spend more time on fighting to be able to work on those problems, then actually working on these problems
