Micromanagement by and strange behavior as well as difficult communication of the C-level
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Awesome flexibility when it comes to working hours and working remotely. This is a major plus.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
That it sometimes feels like as if all employees are lumped together in communications (as if no one really works here). And that the C-Level sometimes takes a harsh tone. There is a different way of motivating people. We no longer live in the 1960s.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Stop parading former colleagues as scapegoats. And listen to people much more and talk less yourselves. Also and especially in workshops. It's time for all of us, not just you.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Has suffered a lot in recent years. The tone is sometimes scary, hence the atmosphere can be very tense.
Kommunikation
C-level communication is often strange, sometimes difficult to understand or follow and questionable from a psychological point of view. This communication is responsible for a lot of noise in the company. After e-mails or certain meetings, D-level and teamleads have to spend time catching up with their people and calming them down.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Micromanagement
Gleichberechtigung
Although the company claims otherwise, upper management is not diverse (4 white middle aged CIS men and one white middle aged CIS woman). The new leadership has primarily placed white middle-aged CIS men around them. Criticism from the staff was met with the reply that women had been interviewed, but that they "would rather work in Paris or New York and not in Leipzig" (The majority of the C-level does not live in Leipzig.) - No PoC in leading positions.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Almost all the coffee mugs with the old company values on them were disposed of, even though they were not broken. Just one example of inconsistent action when it comes to sustainability. (The mugs could have at least been donated.)
