Good product with bad execution
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Change the executive decision making process.
Focus on internal alignment and stability to keep motivation and personal development perspectives alive.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
I felt the company is led autocratically by the CEO. Whoever disagreeing with their decisions was to be gone. That left a feeling of being at the mercy of arbitrary will. Ultimately, this behavior left a feeling of an unstable employment situation.
Work-Life-Balance
Was affected by office closing and faced with job relocation that involved over 2 hours commuting time each way. Options for remote work were cancelled and on-site presence was expected in order not to be extraordinarily terminated.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Often experienced that some colleagues did not get along well with each other in meetings (assuming due to shared past experiences).
Kommunikation
Communication is done regularly (positive).
However, the communicated content mostly focused on the external perception of the company. I think for internal communication the focus should be on topics that relate to daily collaboration amongst the employees and solving internal bottlenecks. The breakdown and transfer of the company's vision and goals was unstructured and unguided. This resulted in OKRs and KPIs just to have them, but not to align internal actions that progress the internal collaboration.
