Leaderless company
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Flexible working hours. Office equipment. Colleagues at work level.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- Permanent political fights between engineering and sales.
-Toxic masculinity in Engineering Management
- Employee surveys are conducted - and simply ignored.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
The entire management in Holland needs to be reconsidered. There are people sitting who are responsible for the entire European site, but have no connection at all with the employees at work level. There is a lack of strategic realignment. Instead, there is continuous micromanagement.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
During the Corona pandemic, management closed its eyes and focused on cost-cutting. Dependence from the Japanese headquarters is paralyzing the company.
Kommunikation
Not a single manager in Europe has any authority. Everything is being dictated from Japan (HQ).
Kollegenzusammenhalt
The only people who support each other are the colleagues in the department. The employees on working level are the only ones who commit to the product and hold the team together.
Work-Life-Balance
Resources are lacking everywhere. In the end, one employee has to do the work of three employees.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
There is no leadership in this company. Top management sits in the Netherlands and closes their eyes. Middle management always seems busy, but does not help at the work level.
Interessante Aufgaben
If the overall workload wasn't so intense, people would be more excited about the products.
Gleichberechtigung
In Europe, equality is more widely enforced. However, there are no women in management position in Japanese HQ.
Arbeitsbedingungen
There is no lack of equipment. Height-adjustable desks, nice big offices and meeting rooms.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
During the Corona period, nothing has been changed in terms of remuneration. Accordingly, the company suffers from strong employee dissatisfaction and high turnover.
Image
The majority of employees would not recommend the company to others.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Young employees lose faith in the company because senior management remains in their positions and no opportunities for promotion are offered.
