Duas Rodas (DR Flavours and Ingredients) is not a healthy place to work
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
They are ambitious and have a good potential for growth
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
They are not humble enough to say that they have things to learn. They came to the European market trying to copy and paste what is done in other regions and do not want to adjust to the European clients' needs. They also disregard employee's wellbeing and good practices.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Give leadership workshops to managers, listen to your employees and the law and make the directors understand that they are not untoucheble.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
There is no trust, nor fairness. The company wants the European team to work exactly like the Brazilian colleagues, ignoring cultural and legal differences, besides personal needs. The work environment is demotivating and toxic, even disrespectful and illegal some times.
Image
I can tell that the Brazilian colleagues are happy with the company and proud to work there, but the feeling in Europe is not the same.
Work-Life-Balance
Homeoffice is not allowed anymore, but they still give you flexibility on your working hours. But that can change at any time.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
I do not see perspective for career development. They only want to keep basic functions in Europe while the business is developed in Brazil.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
The colleagues in Europe are a very nice team to work with and many colleagues from Brazil are also cooperative. But on the management and directors level, there is no regard for employee wellbeing.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Things are decided and communicated top-down without opportunity for feedback. New processes are also decided without the input from the people who will be effected by the changes. Their conflict-resolution technique is to say "the directors decided" and they expect us to just blindly follow.
Arbeitsbedingungen
The current office is not ideal, but they say they are looking for a better one.
Kommunikation
There is no transparency nor openness in their way of communicating. Also, many of the colleagues from Brazil and even managers do not speak German or English.
Interessante Aufgaben
Many people are quitting or being fired. This, together with their strategical planning (so they say) is constantly impacting the company's structure and people's designated tasks. They write new job descriptions and send to you, without previous consultation.
