Kritische Betrachtung einer selbstzentrierten Führungskultur bei Digital Charging Solutions

1,0
Nicht empfohlen
FührungskraftHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung im Bereich IT bei Digital Charging Solutions GmbH in Berlin gearbeitet.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Die Erfahrungen mit dem Führungsgremium von Digital Charging Solutions geben leider Anlass zu deutlicher Kritik. Das Verhalten wirkt in vielen Situationen stark narzisstisch geprägt: Entscheidungen scheinen weniger auf sachlichen Argumenten oder dem Wohl des Unternehmens zu basieren, sondern vielmehr auf Selbstinszenierung und dem Bedürfnis nach Anerkennung.

Kritisches Feedback wird kaum zugelassen oder konstruktiv aufgenommen. Stattdessen entsteht häufig der Eindruck, dass abweichende Meinungen als persönliche Angriffe gewertet werden. Dies führt zu einer Kultur der Unsicherheit, in der Mitarbeitende zögern, offen ihre Perspektiven einzubringen. Transparenz in Entscheidungsprozessen fehlt ebenso wie echte Dialogbereitschaft.

Besonders problematisch ist die Tendenz, Erfolge ausschließlich dem Führungsteam zuzuschreiben, während Herausforderungen oder Fehler nach unten delegiert werden. Diese mangelnde Verantwortungsübernahme schwächt das Vertrauen innerhalb der Organisation erheblich.

Insgesamt entsteht so ein Arbeitsumfeld, das von Hierarchie, Selbstdarstellung und fehlender Empathie geprägt ist. Für ein modernes, innovatives Unternehmen wäre jedoch eine offene, reflektierte und teamorientierte Führungskultur entscheidend.

International scale-up with outstanding culture

4,5
Empfohlen
Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung bei Digital Charging Solutions GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Highly dynamic, international scale-up combining professionalism with a strong people-first culture.
Anyone looking for a modern, diverse, and growth-oriented workplace is in the right spot here.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

nothing

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Clearer internal processes and stronger role clarity could make collaboration smoother and more efficient.
Also a clearer focus on the most impactful initiatives would sometimes help avoid losing momentum by juggling too many things at once.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The atmosphere is exceptionally positive and welcoming. The company maintains a warm, respectful, and collaborative culture. You feel valued from day one.

Work-Life-Balance

The company offers a fantastic level of flexibility concerning working hours, making it easy to balance work with life outside the office. With the hybrid options given and a culture that trusts people to manage their time well, it’s easy to work productively. At times, it can be challenging to keep up with the many initiatives and ongoing changes.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

There are many opportunities for personal and professional growth. Training programs and individual development paths are encouraged. Recently, several team members moved into lead roles, showing that internal progression is also supported.

Gehalt/Benefits

Salary is competitive and complemented by attractive benefits. Perks such as mobility support, meal allowances, and flexible working time stand out.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The team is truly international and diverse, which enriches daily collaboration and brings a wide range of perspectives. Colleagues support each other extremely well.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

The team is mostly rather young, but more and more senior colleagues are joining, and their experience is clearly appreciated. The mix works really well.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Most of the leads I experience are approachable, transparent, and solution-oriented. They communicate decisions clearly and take feedback seriously. As typical for a scale-up, priorities can shift very quickly, but overall leadership is strong and empowering. This mindset is pretty much consistent across all levels of hierarchy.

Arbeitsbedingungen

A notable effort has been made to introduce regular focus times and reduce the number of meetings.

Kommunikation

Communication is usually open, quick, and easy. Even with the fast pace of a scale-up and a super international team, people share updates openly and keep each other in the loop. Sometimes things move fast, but overall it’s clear, friendly, and works really well.
Communication chains and responsibilities at cross‑functional interfaces could occasionally be clarified more effectively.

Gleichberechtigung

The company lives its values: diversity and inclusion are not just buzzwords but visible in everyday interactions.

Interessante Aufgaben

The work is diverse, fast-moving, and gives you real ownership.

Mediocre company

2,8
Nicht empfohlen
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung nicht mehr bei Digital Charging Solutions GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Honestly, there was very little that stood out positively.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

I believe this has been thoroughly described below.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

It’s unlikely that this will happen, but a simple change in leadership could make a significant difference.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Regarding the working atmosphere, I personally consider DCS the most difficult company I have worked for. Blame-shifting was almost a common sport, and the number of colleagues I felt I could genuinely trust was very limited.

Image

The company’s external image was definitely good, especially considering the business it operates in.

Work-Life-Balance

Regarding work–life balance, I would rate DCS positively. Once you made it clear that you were not willing to work beyond regular hours—whether in the office or from home—that boundary was generally understood and respected.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

From a professional standpoint, I personally learned very little at DCS, and what I did gain was more a lesson in navigating a challenging environment. Career development opportunities were essentially nonexistent.

Gehalt/Benefits

I would describe the salary level as mid-to-high, with additional benefits such as the Mobiko mobility bonus, EGYM-Wellpass, and subsidized office lunches.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Regarding environmental and social responsibility, I can give no more than three stars given the company’s business. For example, despite operating in the electric mobility sector, the office offered no possibility to charge an electric car — not even for a fee — in the garage.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Many colleagues were genuinely helpful, but a significant number provided little support — and in some cases displayed outright hostility.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

As for older colleagues, DCS is a very young company with a predominantly young workforce. Older employees are essentially those in leadership roles; most other staff members are under 35, if not under 30.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

What can I say: it often felt like a culture of being strong with the weak and weak with the strong.

Arbeitsbedingungen

The working conditions were generally good: a modern office with spacious desks and adequate heating, though temperature control could be an issue during seasonal transitions.

Kommunikation

Regarding communication, there were weekly and monthly plenary meetings where management shared updates. However, I often felt these sessions were somewhat superficial — more a way to tick the box of having ‘informed’ the staff than a genuine effort at transparent communication.

Gleichberechtigung

As is often the case, most leadership positions were held by men, though I should acknowledge that there were also women present in the decision-making room.

Interessante Aufgaben

Let’s say that the company’s business is not the most ‘fascinating’ in the world (in my view), but that’s something one should be aware of before joining.

Energy is the place to be

4,2

Hat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung bei Digital Charging Solutions GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

A great place for professionals who want to put their mark on an industry. Demanding work, high standards towards ownership, and a feedback culture that's genuinely fair and not just polite. The teams are diverse, motivated, and spread across strong office locations (Munich/Berlin). This isn't the place if you want a defined lane and predictable days. But if you want to shape how an entire industry develops, there's no better seat.

Image

Unknown to many even within the industry. But those deep into public charging know that DCS is the gold standard.

Work-Life-Balance

4-day week which I don't want to give up anymore. The days can be long and demanding, but the extra day off is real and protected. Pays back in multiples.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Career progression isn't handed to you at DCS - no automatic promotions, salary increases or predefined paths like at a traditional corporate. Development doesn't come top-down either. But those who push and actively ask for opportunities get them. Takes assertiveness, but the door is open.

Gehalt/Benefits

All in all, fair with some weaknesses here and there. For example, the bAV provider and subsidy could be better - worth checking the details yourself.

On the positive side: mobility subsidies for everyone and strong incentives for getting an EV make the overall package attractive.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Strong sense of togetherness as people genuinely believe in e-mobility and that shared mission carries into how teams support each other. Team events help, but the real test is day-to-day collaboration, and it holds up even against the inefficiencies that come with being a scaleup. Cross-functional work between offices takes more effort, but within teams the cohesion is real.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

I can only speak for my direct leads, who genuinely create an atmosphere I can thrive in: trust, freedom to execute, and regular feedback in both directions.

I understand others might see leadership overall as too inexperienced or indecisive. Those criticisms aren't ignored. There's awareness and action being taken. But my own experience has been positive.

Kommunikation

Demanding tasks and a fast-changing environment require steady communication. Leadership puts real effort into contextualisation, even if it doesn't always feel that way at first. Two offices with distinct team cultures add complexity. Add in the sheer number of communication channels and it can feel like overflow. Sometimes less would be more, but the intent behind the communication is genuine.

Interessante Aufgaben

I get to build on what I find genuinely exciting.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

A dynamic and exciting workplace with a truly international team. Great events, strong learning culture, flexible hours, and room to grow. The ability to work 4 weeks from abroad and having 6 full weeks off is a huge plus.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The fast pace may not suit people who prefer a very steady, predictable 9-to-5 routine, but for me, it makes the job exciting.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Continue expanding learning & development offerings and maintain the flexible, people-centered culture as the company grows.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

A very positive and energetic atmosphere. People are friendly, open, and supportive, with a strong sense of collaboration.

Image

Strong brand in a rapidly expanding EMSP market. The company is adapting quickly and staying ahead of industry trends.

Work-Life-Balance

The new 36-hour week and flexible working hours make balance much easier. Two office days per week is also very fair.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Plenty of room for growth, learning budget, technical workshops, internal training sessions, and cross-team exposure.

Gehalt/Benefits

Competitive salary compared to the market and thoughtful benefits like subsidized lunch, events, and learning budget.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Regular training on GDPR, security, first aid, incident response, and diversity awareness. Good culture of responsibility.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Great multicultural mix, strong collaboration, and lots of team bonding events, both big company parties and smaller celebrations.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Mixed-age teams work well together, and knowledge sharing is appreciated across all experience levels.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Managers are approachable and supportive, and they genuinely encourage learning, growth, and taking initiative.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Modern offices, good equipment, and a flexible hybrid setup. Occasional travel between Munich/Berlin if needed.

Kommunikation

Transparent and frequent communication. Leadership regularly shares updates, and teams stay aligned despite the fast pace.

Gleichberechtigung

Diversity and inclusion are actively encouraged, with training sessions, women’s lunches, and multicultural activities.

Interessante Aufgaben

Very dynamic environment with lots of varied and meaningful tasks. Perfect for people who enjoy learning and not doing the same routine every day.
