Arbeitsatmosphäre
The atmosphere at Affinitas is one of the best things of that company. A young international team welcomes you from the very first day at monthly "All-Hands" event, where you have the possibility to introduce your self and to receive a warm welcome from everybody.
The managers know how to make you happy through some measures:
- Fair salary
- Are willing to hear your new ideas
- Company lunch from a catering every month
- Breakfast for free once a month
- Fruits, vegetables, cereals, milk, refreshments, coffee, tea even ginger to make some tea when you are getting sick are all available every day for you
- Reasonable budget for team events
- Friday beer: Every Friday you have a party from 18:00 h until 21:00 h with free beers, refreshment, snacks and pizza (once a month the pizza)
- A flat hierarchy will give you the freedom you need to be happy at work
- At pandora box meeting they give you the possibility to submit your ideas, specially valuable for creative persons
Vorgesetztenverhalten
I was treated with a lot of respect the time I spent there. By conflicts the superiors are always willing to help and to hear you
Kollegenzusammenhalt
The coworkers are always willing to help and it is very easy to work like this. As I have worked with several departments, I think I can say that this area is also optimal
Interessante Aufgaben
In 6 months I almost didn't have stress. The company until now doesn't stress the coworkers. Interesting tasks don't come everyday but they are always willing to implement new features. What I really liked from this company is that as a database developer I didn't have to solve many bugs as by other companies. I spent the most of my time developing new features.
Kommunikation
There is a monthly meeting where the managers introduce you how was the last month in terms of success, economical balance, etc
Gleichberechtigung
There are many women in high positions and many women in general but maybe I am not the right person to talk about that as I am a man
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
There are some coworkers older than 45 and they are really good
Karriere / Weiterbildung
The working process is changing and the developers will work as full stack ones. It will bring a great possibility to learn new technologies.
There is also a possiblity to move internally.
Gehalt / Sozialleistungen
Top salary in IT, I can't say the opposite
Arbeitsbedingungen
The computers are new and really fast. You can select windows or linux, use a mac if you want, etc. The salaries from my point of view for IT are really good
Umwelt- / Sozialbewusstsein
Now the coworkers have the possibility to order plants for free. I got my bonsai some months ago
Work-Life-Balance
You can get holidays whenever you want and they are very flexible for you daily schedule (you have flexibility for your schedule and start working from 7:00 h to 10:00h)

The general opinion is very good or it is what I have heard. Of course there are also persons who complain but maybe those persons didn't work at other companies in Germany...
