Two years of slow decay behind, but hopefully now Zühlke will be reloaded
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The employees. The recruiting process is very good, so Zühlke has very good employees.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The strategic leadership was absent for 2 years. That still hurts us a lot. Do not let the company get in such a position any more...
Verbesserungsvorschläge
I guess the new strategy that is currently started to get implemented is the right direction. But as Zühlke basically did nothing to stop its downfall the last 2 years, there is a lot of work ahead. Those changes need to be done now, even if the hurt... So there is pain ahead; be honest but consequent about it, and do not try to return to fairytale land and claim everything is fine!
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Depends a lot on project and team, but generally good. The financial and organizational problems in the last years took their toll...
Image
Still strong
Work-Life-Balance
No complaints here, but you have to be self-organized.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Definitely not as good as it used to be, but still above industry average
Gehalt/Benefits
Due to financial problems, missing profit share. This alone would be sad but understandable, but Zühlke still advertises its construct of "Total Compensation," which includes benefits that are never paid out. This is dishonest; just talk about the fixed salary and not some made-up fantasy numbers. And if there is a bonus, that's on top!
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Lots of talking, no actions. It feels to me quite dishonest. But to be fair, I think we're still "industry average."
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Still strong
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Never heard any complaints; lot's of long-time employees
Vorgesetztenverhalten
So many reorganizations and changes -> hopefully the last reorg will bring some stability...
Arbeitsbedingungen
Offices are top, but most of the time on the customer side, so it's not that relevant...
Kommunikation
Especially in the last years, communication was desperately needed due to the problems the company has, but any kind of leadership was absent. This has already improved with the new management; however, it needs to be seen how this continues.
Gleichberechtigung
Lots of talking, no actions. We still have below-industry women's participation, and no one dares to ask why...
