Being pushed to run with a hobble
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
friendly atmosphere
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
honesty is missing
no vision
Verbesserungsvorschläge
establish clear and transparent communication top down and bottom up (better communicate on one level)
management should focus on strategic tasks, not working operativ
Arbeitsatmosphäre
atmosphere is ok, but you feel the financial pressure under which the company is operating. You work is rewarded by the team members and you receive good feedback
Kommunikation
Company communication can definitively be improved. A yearly meeting to inform about goals is not enough. Company strategy is not clear laid out and therefor decisions are not comprehensibly. Weekly meetings to highlight the accomplishments of the weeks are held and they are really helpful to stay in touch with the colleagues.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
everyone is friendly
nice that you can easily get in contact with colleagues from USA and other parts of the world
The development team organised, carried out and payed for themselves for the yearly team event.
lack of honest and transparent communication
While some co-workes are really honest and trying to establish transparent and clear communication, others only want to do their job and are not mindful about what they are doing.
Work-Life-Balance
got the impression that over-hours are expected and rewarded (not in a financial way)
home office not allowed
Vorgesetztenverhalten
direct supervisors are super, they are in close contact with the co-workers and understand the need of the team
management however is kinda distant and not team goal orientated, decisions from management are not explained nor clearly communicated, management seems more power than customer value oriented
Interessante Aufgaben
In my position I was able to perform my tasks in the way I think it was best. Short feedback from my supervisor helped me to stay on track. Colleagues however had less freedom of choice how to realise set goals.
Gleichberechtigung
mainly male co-works. I had the feelings women are treated as equals.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Mainly young colleagues. In my impression the older ones have been treated as equals.
Arbeitsbedingungen
nice modern office rooms
very hot in summer, no AC
no height adjustable tables
laptop are state of the art
headset for (a lot of) skype calls could be of better quality and comfort
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
no information about environment care or whatsoever
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
punctual payment
salary is good
no social benefits
Image
Company is world leader in their business, but that is not well communicated. Therefore none of the people I introduced the Company to knew about it. Co-workes talking honest about their opinion of the company.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Training was promised but when I asked for it the training was delayed. I kept current with my training for myself (free online courses). Employees which have been for years in the company received training (when asked for).
