A rather critical view
Arbeitsatmosphäre
There are several structural and leadership-related issues that make it difficult to recommend the company long term.

Overall, Metalshub may work as an entry point for international employees or younger professionals, but experienced specialists looking for strong leadership, clear strategy, competitive salaries, and a mature organizational culture may be disappointed.
Work-Life-Balance
There are also noticeable inconsistencies in remote work policies. Developers are allowed to work mostly from home, while many other employees are expected to come to the office three days a week, which creates frustration and a sense of unfairness between departments.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Metalshub can be a decent starting point for expats who want to gain experience in Germany and build an international network. The atmosphere among colleagues is generally friendly, and people from similar cultural backgrounds tend to support each other well.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Many experienced employees and subject-matter experts have either left the company or were let go, while replacements are often younger and less experienced. The overall average age in the company feels very low, which contributes to a lack of seniority and strategic depth in some areas.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Another recurring issue is the strong presence of egos and internal politics. This creates an environment where visibility and personal positioning sometimes seem more important than expertise or sustainable decision-making
Arbeitsbedingungen
Okay - but not really outstanding
Kommunikation
Communication across the company is often unclear and inconsistent. Important decisions are not communicated transparently, and there seems to be little long-term vision from leadership
Gehalt/Benefits
Compensation is below market average for many positions, especially considering the expectations and workload.
Gleichberechtigung
Well-balanced with regards to origin and gender, however age is an issue in my opinion
Interessante Aufgaben
Great concept, but average ececution.
