Stressful and chaotic
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
It does not have a blameless culture, and teams lack psychological safety. Employees are shamed and singled out for failures caused by management to deflect attention from poor planning. There's also lack of transparency, and more of bro club mentality.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
It's a transient environment with many moving parts, resulting in decisions changing every few weeks. Restructuring and layoffs are frequent.
Image
Quiet on the outside, tense on the inside.
Work-Life-Balance
The broader culture normalises overwork (60+ hours a week) without adequately protecting people who are already stretched.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Some team members are collaborative, but the workload is often unevenly distributed across the team, with newer employees overloaded under pressure and shorter deadlines, and the more tenured or senior employees being idle for long.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Management can be unprofessional and verbally aggressive, creating a hostile environment during difficult times, leading to burnout.
Kommunikation
Many stakeholders and managers are unaligned with each other but still have demanding expectations from the team. There are no proper feedback loops in place, and HR also tends to lack processes on having structured conversations or involving all required parties before making decisions.
Gleichberechtigung
Sadly alpha-prone. Decision-making is unilateral.
Interessante Aufgaben
Depends. If you're in a floating role, i.e. without a grounded team, you might feel sandwiched between teams lacking ownership boundaries.
