-coffee machine

-low salary
-unfair promotions
-no room to move up unless you leave the company
-some managers have no idea what they are doing
Invest more in your internal employees and have a more fair promotion cycle. Don't just promote people who ask for it or threaten to leave. People shouldn't have to threaten to leave to get a promotion.
Great atmosphere cool office with great people
From external I would say it looks really good growing fast and taking over other companies
Work is really flexible and lots of home office days also we are working from home at the moment in this situation
No room to move up. You have to ask for a promotion rather than getting a promotion from your performance. Pay raises are not good at all barely make up for the cost of living per year. They spend a lot of money in freelancers rather than in their own employees. They do have linkedin learning but thats about it. They spend a huge amount of money on external employees rather than promoting and training their internal employees.
Salary is very low and not competitive at all. No room to move up here and promotions aren't fair and equal.
Colleagues are amazing super nice and always willing to help. Very international group.
Communication is not that good especially between HR and all the employees it isnt so transparent most of the time.
Tasks are super varried so thats nice
The collegues are really amazing and the environment is really good. Management is really friendly and nice and really good work life balance.
Salary is way too low and not competitive at all. Employees have to ask to get promoted which shouldn't be how it is. There is no long term career planning and employees feel undervalued with the salary they receive.
Pay higher salaries and don't make people ask to get promotions. People should not have to ask to get promoted.
Good communication, great support during the wfh time.
Nothing to complain.
That handle corona really great!
Depends on the team. There are teams with a great collegial cohesion, others are the opposite
There are not that many older colleagues.
The less you know, the higher your position will be.
Too many managers are taking things personally. There is no professional behavior possible.
Global Savings Group really does everything to protect us. The set everything to avoid Kurzarbeit - not speaking of letting people go. Managemant made clear that this is not an option at all.
All in all I feel very safe and protected.
Nothing.
There's nothing they could do better.
Although it's very hard to have a real work-life-balance while working from home we've got heaps of information on how to deal with it and effectively separate work from private life.
No repercussions so far. Our management did everything to avoid Kurzarbeit including reducing their own salaries.
Working conditions obviously vary a lot - depending on the different flats people live in. But we're supported a lot and we also had the opportunity to have work chairs from the office delivered home if needed.
Gute, ausführliche Kommunikation, Hilfe für einzelne Kollegen bei Problemen, Massnahmen gut begründet, keine Kurzarbeit bisher.
Nichts
Nicht viel, vielen Dank!
- The most notable benefit and perhaps redeeming quality of this company is its employees and culture. The majority are young, international, driven, skilled and welcoming. Ideal if you are starting a career or want to make friends in a new city.
- Depending on your team, you can gain a lot of insight into various topics and learn from knowledgeable colleagues and managers.
- Mostly flat hierarchies in daily business if everything is going well.
- A lot of effort is put into bringing the company across as a cool and fun place to work. Beer o'clock, team events, office space, casual clothes, etc.
- Some employees are treated as a replaceable resource.
- Regular unpaid overtime and the option to make up hours is only given after lengthy discussions.
- Often negative feedback or suggestions for improvement are ignored and instead topics are tackled that aren't as pressing. E.g. salaries have been an issue for years, while great team spirit has been praised even in reviews on platforms such as this. Instead of effectively tackling the salary problem, HR worked on defining company culture.
- Some managers/team leads are inexperienced, preoccupied or overworked, resulting in bad management and a general lack of leadership in some teams.
- HR is distrusted by many employees, due to their lack of sincerity, direction and honesty.
- Using young employees' inexperience against them and/or utilizing basic bullying tactics, especially when it comes to promotions and overtime.
- Encouraging employees to submit reviews on platforms such as this for a chance to win a team event. Seems like an attempt to get good reviews.
Ensure the best qualities of GSG are present and felt in every team. Experiences differ greatly between teams and it would be beneficial to find ways in which to promote a good baseline across ALL teams.
The atmosphere among employees is always welcoming and open.
Employees always speak well of their colleagues and work, but comments about management can be negative.
Home office days and flexible hours are great, but the need for overtime can sometimes be too high and there is often no option provided to make up those hours.
Ability to learn a lot from colleagues in different teams and internal basic trainings, but external courses or other benefits are rarely offered.
Salary generally isn't very competitive, especially in relation to workload and responsibility, but there is potential to quickly advance within the company.
Some managers and team leads don't handle problems well. They sometimes ignore employees, bully or make excuses in difficult situations. Top management handled some situations very poorly in the past months, by taking action before fully understanding the problem.
Good at company level, but communication between managers and teams can be slow, lacking or non-existent.
Very diverse, however some inequalities are present below the surface. E.g. some juniors have a 1 month notice period, others get 3 months. Foreign employees sometimes get short notice periods, presumably to put them under pressure, since their visa is linked to the contract.
Hi there,
Thank you very much for review - we really value your honesty!
We’re happy you value the freedom and parts of our company culture. Nevertheless, we would like to respond to some of the points you address:
We have more than 25 nationalities working in our Munich office who comprise a significant part of our colleagues. Additionally, we view GSG as a truly multicultural place to work and we have a very strict approach to treat all of our colleagues the same way. As you also mentioned contracts: we have a standard contract for every country that is according to the respective laws and regulations and treats every new hire completely equal both in terms of conditions as well as salaries (we worked on those as hard as on the definition of our company culture). In case you feel treated unfairly or know of someone who is treated as such please let us know! You can contact your buddy, the People & Culture team or - as this topic is very dear to us - Gerhard, our CEO. We’re more than happy to talk to you.
As you know, we’re right now in a transition phase from being purely a startup into becoming a company that incorporates the best from both the startup as well as corporate world. We’re doing our best in supporting all of our colleagues in improving their individual skill sets and thus making GSG an even better place to work. Following up on the surveys we sent out at the end of last and beginning of this year the resulting focus groups, where we are deeper discussing the feedback we received from all of our colleagues, have already been held in their first round. But our invitation still stands: if you want to contribute you are invited to approach us and share your thoughts. There are multiple topics we want to improve together with you and we are looking forward to openly sharing and discussing whatever topics come up.
And regarding your last point - that we use kununu’s offer to elicit mainly positive reviews: every review we get - be it positive or negative helps us to improve as a whole. Honestly, we wouldn’t have promoted it if we were afraid of constructive feedback but we would appreciate it even more if it was given directly to us. So please feel free to contact the People & Culture team, your buddy or our CEO to discuss any of this.
Cheers,
Gina
Friendly amosphere, people who care about projects, intersting tasks.
Everything is great so far
guter Stundenlohn
weiss ich nicht
fällt mir gerade nichts ein
I really like that GSG is really improving in all their process and procedures and aiming to become a truly global company. They put a lot of effort into training and coaching all employees as well as supporting us as good as possible.
There's not a lot to improve, but in general we should take environmental and CSR issues into more focus.
A very open and welcoming atmosphere witha lot of cool colleagues.
There's still some space for improvment, but you can grow both personally as well as professionally.
Salary and benefits are as can be expected. I would so upper medium.
Could be better, to be honest.
Just great. You can have a lot of fun while you are always able to receive and give constructive feedback as well.
See above.
In general very good, sometimes you still feel to "maturity" of the organization. But that has been improving lately, too.
In Munich the office is great, we have everything we need and can possible want.
For a company that size communication is ok, but could be faster sometimes. It really depends on the respective manager how fast important information is communicated.
I have never worked in a company that has been as diverse as Global Savings Group. As far as I can tell everyone is treated the same.
