Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Openness to innovation and change, flexibility, responsible and interesting tasks

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Expand the management level to create more structures, stronger employer brand

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The atmosphere among colleagues is relaxed, everyone is very helpful, and you can quickly get into contact with people outside your own team.

Image

We are a cool company, but unfortunately still somewhat inconspicuous to the outside world.

Work-Life-Balance

Thanks to flexible working hours, you get a good handle on your work-life balance.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The team spirit among colleagues is great!

Arbeitsbedingungen

You are provided with very modern IT equipment, but the office space could be made even more attractive.

Kommunikation

Communication within the company is very transparent and open, even if it doesn't always work perfectly. Feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Interessante Aufgaben

Due to the size and age of the company, the decision-making paths are still very short and the room for initiative is very large. Ideas can be introduced and directly implemented without having to turn around several loops. I enjoy that very much!

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Hybrid work, modern tech stack, motivated colleagues and interesting topics.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

My advice would be to hire more product experts with payment know how. The tech expertise in the company is really good. But we are really lacking payment industry experts to drive the product vision.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Nice colleagues, interesting tasks, 2 week sprints.

Image

Backed by the REWE group, but the visibility in the payment bubble needs to be enhanced.

Work-Life-Balance

I can't complain, it gets stressful here and there but we want to get things done, right?

Karriere/Weiterbildung

There is a budget per person, but you need to ask for it, totally fine in my opinion.

Gehalt/Benefits

It's a matter of negotiation. I am happy with my salary.
I think things like an extra vacation pay, christmas money or VWL would be something people would really appreciate.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

I can't tell.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Great colleagues, we are trying to do team buildings whenever it is possible, we also have quarterly company events and nice possibilities for hackathons in the broader rewe group.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

The average age is relatively young, but we also have some older colleagues which are totally included and respected for there knowledge.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

My line manager is really kind and always has an open ear for every topic I have. He encourages me to involve myself and has the right portion of being pushy to leave my comfort zone. Thumbs up.

Arbeitsbedingungen

You get top notch hardware, all licenses you need and the overall toolstack is modern and cloud native.
Indeed a great environment to work with state of the art technology.

Kommunikation

Okayish..

Interessante Aufgaben

Great topics, interesting industry.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

cool product, cool tech stack, good tool landscape overall, smart and driven folks, lot of space to bring ideas and have an impact

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

communication top-down can be improved, stronger employer brand, more efficiency when it comes to decision-making

Arbeitsatmosphäre

have all the things I need to be able to do my job, as I am mostly remote, having 2 kids, I do not have always the "right" environment - my "problem"

Image

really cool company in terms what it is doing, product-wise, very innovative, but we do have quite some to do's when it comes to strengthening the brand and "marketing" ourselves better

Work-Life-Balance

having 2 kids can be often a "far stretch", but paymenttools provides flexibility to manage my time accordingly

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

did not get much involved in this, but sustainability is an important topic

Karriere/Weiterbildung

employee education budget and you get what you ask for, if you ask for it

Kollegenzusammenhalt

really cool people, very friendly

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

noticed we have several colleagues who are over 2 decades in the company and they are very much appreciated and recognized which is cool

Arbeitsbedingungen

the CW office is really cool and big, Berlin office is really nice as well thus cant complain - can come anytime I wants. We are in a change phase thus we have couple of building blocks to tackle, but interesting tasks

Kommunikation

as we are in a change phase we are improving how we convey ideas & updates, but sometimes its not that straight-forward top-down, but that is everywhere

Gehalt/Benefits

salary-wise I do think we are offering market standard, but we do miss some other incentives and perks - which will come by time

Thanks for being part of our team and for balancing your work and family life with us.

Warm regards,

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Qualify your leadership team. An actually good vision is ruined by unsympathetic, unprofessional and inexperienced leadership. The fluctuation speaks for itself.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The corporate culture is characterized by fear. A collaborative and appreciative work environment is sought in vain.

Work-Life-Balance

The possibility to work in a home office and generally a high flexibility. Here, however, I experience a lot of individual regulations. I don't know if it's like that for everyone.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Very good at the employee level. The colleagues stick together. That's why it's sad to see so many go.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

I haven’t experienced any difference to younger colleagues.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Probably the worst part. Management and senior leadership (with one exception) act unprofessionally and regularly get lost in micro management. If you are one of the chosen ones, your luck. If not, then get a tough skin or rather quit right away. Basically, the focus of the management level is to cut a good figure in front of financiers and the board of directors.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Free choice of hardware. Offices are ok but not really Start up like.

Kommunikation

There is a lot of communication. Unfortunately, this often happens in a headless and unprofessional manner. New communication and decision-making channels are constantly being created or regular meetings initiated.

Gehalt/Benefits

Not much to complain here. But lack of transparency.

Gleichberechtigung

There must be a reason why you look in vain for women at management level.

Interessante Aufgaben

The original vision was inspiring. Since then, much has been lost in the day-to-day business and justification culture.

Ein Toller Arbeitgeber der seinem Angestellten viel Freiraum gibt

4,1
Empfohlen
Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung im Bereich IT in Köln gearbeitet.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Wichtige Themen sollten früher und transparenter kommuniziert werden.
Eine VWL Übernahme wäre toll.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Der Umgang in meinem direktem Team ist super, ich habe Spaß bei der Arbeit.

Image

Als Teil der REWE Gruppe genießt das Unternehmen aus meiner Sicht ein gutes Image,

Work-Life-Balance

Man hat jederzeit die Möglichkeit mal einen privaten Termin auch während der Arbeitszeit wahrzunehmen, wichtig ist nur, dass man seinen Soll erfüllt.
Das Hybride Arbeitsmodell stellt es mir Frei ob ich im Homeoffice oder im Büro arbeite.
Natürlich herrscht eine gewisse Dynamik und Dinge müssen zeitnah erledigt werden, trotzdem bleibt genug Zeit um die Themen sorgfältig bearbeiten zu können.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Weiterbildungsmöglichkeiten werden Angeboten, mann muss sich aber Proaktiv darum kümmern.

Gehalt/Benefits

Ich bin mit dem Gehalt absolut zufrieden, ich fände es toll wenn der Arbeitgeber zusätzlich noch VWL übernehmen würde.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Ich kann nicht sagen, ob hier ein besonderes Augenmerk auf diese Themen gelegt wird.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Insbesondere innerhalb des Teams ist der Zusammenhalt toll, alle arbeiten zusammen um Lösungen zu finden!

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Das durchschnittliche Alter in dem Unternehmen ist insgesamt recht Jung, dennoch kann ich keinen Unterschied im Umgang mit den älteren Kolleginnen und Kollegen festellen.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Ich bin sehr Zufrieden mit meinem Vorgesetzten.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Die ausgegebene Hardware ist State of the Art, man kann zwischen einem Macbook, einem Windows oder einem Linux basiertem Notebook wählen.
in den Büros herrscht freue Platzwahl, dass muss man mögen.
Wenn es voller ist, kann es in den Büros auch schonmal lauter werden.
Ich finde aber das insbesondere im Carlswerk ein toller Vibe herrscht.
An Verpflegung mangelt ein in keinem der Büros.

Kommunikation

Kommunikation ist immer ein schwieriges Thema, teilweise würde ich mir wünschen, dass wichtige Themen früher kommuniziert werden.
Über die Feedback Kultur innerhalb meines Teams und mit meinem direkten Vorgesetzten kann ich mich jedoch nicht beschweren.

Gleichberechtigung

Im Engineering gibt es einen Männerüberhang, ich denke aber, dass ist der Situation am Arbeitsmarkt geschuldet.
Trotzdem herrscht aus meiner Sicht Chancengleichheit, da ich aber ein Mann bin fällt es mir schwer hier eine neutrale Bewertung abzugeben.

Interessante Aufgaben

Wer Spaß an modernen Technologien gepaart mit den dynamischen Produktanforderungen in der Paymentindustrie wird hier Spaß haben.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

I guess it‘s what everyone answers in our „happiness-surveys“ as well: the people!
The people in the teams are really cool. And it‘s sad to see that under an empowering leadership they could all work out an amazing product and grow so much better!

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Know your people! Try to understand what they are working on. And if you don‘t have the time to talk to them, let them do their job and trust them.
Stop micro manage. :-)
If you hire experts, give them power. If you know it better, do your job alone.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Me personally I am afraid of the leadership and to ask for help

Image

We are not on a level with our competitors.

Work-Life-Balance

One thing I love about the job is that you feel responsible for your job and you get this responsibility in the same way. We have flexible worktimes and nobody is controlling you.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

When I started they told me about regular feedback meetings where you talk about how you want to improve, what your goals are and stuff. I really do improve but nobody notice it and nobody has time to talk about it.
But you get money for external trainings.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

There is a sustainability project from a colleague from the design team which has amazing goals. But it doesn‘t seem like part of the strategy… But after two years Paymenttools doesn‘t have a brand identity or corporate values anyway. So it‘s hard to identify with the company.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Toxic work environment creates the clostest friendships, right? You need to stick together to keep a positive mind.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

I guess the positive ratings that says something different are the lucky ones that comes from the REWE Group or have another close connection to leadership. So these people are kind of part of the „leadership-circle“

Arbeitsbedingungen

It‘s a benefit that you can choose your device! On the other hand we hope that our new office space will be a lovely and cozy place.

Kommunikation

There is the team leadership and the team workers. The leadership is rarely transparent about failure. It‘s more fake which gives the employees the feeling that‘s the right way…

Gleichberechtigung

A female colleague from mine were told „to act more in the background“… that describes it quite good.

Interessante Aufgaben

For me personally I like my job and the projects I work on.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

In Beziehungen ist Kommunikation das A und O. Mehr Ehrlichkeit und Demut in der Führung.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Die Führung sagt das eine, tut aber etwas anderes.

Auf dem Papier haben alle die gleichen Chancen, in der Realität gibt es große Unterschiede in der Art und Weise, wie die Mitarbeiter behandelt werden.

Angst, Mikromanagement und Zweifel, es sei denn, man ist "einer der Jungs".

Kommunikation

Feedback wird nur berücksichtigt, wenn es positiv ist. Große Führungsblase.

Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung für dieses Unternehmen in Köln gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

There's not much left. And if the job situation were a little better right now, I'd be gone.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

You do your job and let others do theirs. Leadership should lead and care about the well-being of the company, not have a say in topics they don't know anything about.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The atmosphere between colleagues is often warm, but is toxified by the management level. The general climate is therefore a bad one and characterized by insecurity. Either the management level is not there and does not care, or it becomes involved on the most micro level as if out of nowhere. The chaos is simply unbearable.

Work-Life-Balance

Ok, but you feel unsatisfied after work.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Some try to initiate after-work events, but there's not much of that left now either.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Simply bad. Always friendly in conversation, but behind the back you hear other things. Opinions are welcome as long as they are not critical.

Arbeitsbedingungen

you get what you need.

Kommunikation

Everything is a secret. Nobody knows anything, except rumors.
