Good for entry-level jobs.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Extremely intransparent, very hierarchical, very little development possibilties.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Implement a system to reward overhours.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
This is relatively dependant of your colleagues, but in general it’s a very hierarchic, old-fashioned and intransparent company.
Kommunikation
Communication within department is mostly fine, but as soon as this concerns bigget organisational structures, be prepared to wait a long time for answers on general questions and be referred to several other contact points.
Work-Life-Balance
Overhours do not exist. We are told to balance them out by ourselves but in practice you will not have space and time to reduce your collected overhours.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Managers are open but have very little feeling with operational field of work. Concerns of people lowest in the hierarchy are listened to but aren’t adressed to bring actual change in.
Interessante Aufgaben
As a employee in the lower hierarchy you will do repetitive work that often does not require a lot of thinking.
Gleichberechtigung
Big difference in opportunities given to male vs female employees.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Pro: 30 days holiday, reduced public transport ticket, cafetaria.
Contra: very low wage, no overhours, very little options for further development.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Greenwashing
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Extremely low wage. Even people with a master degree will make way less than the industry’s average.
