Ich schätze besonders das hohe Maß an Ownership, Flexibilität und Vertrauen, das mir persönlich im Arbeitsalltag entgegengebracht wird. Zudem sind die Antwortzeiten sehr prompt und das Team ist jederzeit erreichbar und hilfsbereit. Die Team-Events tragen dazu bei, persönliche Verbindungen zu intensivieren und das Miteinander zu stärken – was die Zusammenarbeit noch angenehmer macht.
Ein Name, der sich hervorragend im Lebenslauf macht und ein ausgezeichnetes Sprungbrett sein kann, wenn man es für eine gewisse Zeit in der Company aushält. Darüber hinaus trifft man auf spannende Talente und interessante Menschen und lernt, wie man effektiv mit den negativen Aspekten der Unternehmenswelt umgeht. Eine wertvolle Erfahrung.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich das junge, dynamische Team, eigene Ideen werden auch von Praktikanten ernst genommen
Ineffective management and interactions with non-management is the biggest issue. Poor understanding of job functions, total workload, and very little documentation or structure in processes has brought us here.
You get the feeling many managers don't respect or trust their employees. In the recent years, more long term employees than I can remember have quit or were fired/offered severance.
You also have to pay to park your car in the company parking spaces. Charging employees to park their own car ...
Reality and what you are told by superiors are frequently different. People quit and open positions remain unfilled for months. Management "always knows better" and you should never question any guidance they give you
Als Verbesserungspotenzial sehe ich persönlich, dass an manchen Stellen ein klarer, einheitlich ausgerichteter Management-Ansatz fehlt, was teilweise zu Uneinheitlichkeit in der strategischen Ausrichtung führt.
Technical equipment issues can slow down daily work.
Variability in leadership quality across teams.
Workload peaks can be demanding without additional compensation.
Zu wenig Transparenz - keine Aufklärung bei unerklärlichen Gehaltsunterschieden! Sehr wenige benefits obwohl das komplett konträr dargestellt wird!
I would focus on giving more autonomy to team leads and specialists to reduce bottlenecks and improve execution speed. More stable prioritization would help reduce constant context switching and improve long-term planning. I would also improve how employee concerns around cost of living, commuting and flexibility are addressed, with clearer acknowledgment of the constraints many employees face and more transparent communication around decision-making.
Please, please start listening to your employees. In recent years, the company has changed from a great, open workplace with fantastic colleagues into more of a performance-driven machine, where communication is lacking and where, from the top, you get the feeling that my work is not as important as that of others.
From my perspective, the company still has the potential to improve significantly. However, this would require leadership to listen more carefully to employee feedback, address criticism transparently, and use it constructively to rebuild trust and improve the working environment.
Allgemein sollte mehr Transparenz herrschen und ein bisschen mehr auf Mitarbeiter und ihre Anliegen eingegangen werden! Es soll der Schein von Luxury Treatment erregt werden, wobei es eher einer Massenabfertigung gleicht !
Improve meeting room availability and overall office logistics.
Increase technical reliability, especially laptops and software tools.
Consider more structure around workload peaks and resource planning.
Der am besten bewertete Faktor von Westwing Group ist Kollegenzusammenhalt mit 4,3 Punkten (basierend auf 150 Bewertungen).
Der Zusammenhalt im Unternehmen ist aus meiner Sicht insgesamt sehr gut. Natürlich kann das je nach Team etwas variieren, aber mein persönlicher Eindruck ist durchweg positiv. Ich verstehe mich hervorragend mit meinen Kollegen und komme wirklich gerne ins Büro. Es entstehen sogar echte Freundschaften, und wir haben auch außerhalb der Arbeit oft gemeinsam Spaß. Das Miteinander ist wertschätzend, unterstützend und macht den Arbeitsalltag deutlich angenehmer.
The sense of togetherness among colleagues is very strong, especially within teams, and in many cases even extends to friendships. Regular team events contribute positively to collaboration and team spirit. The provision of drinks and shared spaces in the cafeteria further encourages informal exchange and connection.
Team cohesion is very strong. However, I’ve heard from many people that they would have left the company long ago if it weren’t for their team. Unfortunately, that speaks more for the individual employees than for the company itself. I also would have left a long time ago if I didn’t have my team.
Der Umgang ist sehr respektvoll, man arbeitet gerne zusammen und kann sich auch bei stressigen Projekten aufeinander verlassen.
Neuen Kolleg:innen wird sofort geholfen, Fragen werden nie belächelt.
Das Umfeld ist inspirierend und so angenehm, dass man auch privat gerne Zeit miteinander verbringt.
Der am schlechtesten bewertete Faktor von Westwing Group ist Gehalt/Benefits mit 3,0 Punkten (basierend auf 128 Bewertungen).
There is a noticeable disconnect between the company's "pay-for-performance" messaging and how compensation decisions are perceived internally. The CPO frequently highlights performance-based compensation as a core principle. However, many employees feel that only a very small percentage of the workforce is realistically considered for salary increases, regardless of how broadly strong performance may have been across teams. This creates the perception that predefined quotas play a larger role than actual performance outcomes. As a result, the credibility of the "pay-for-performance" ...
Salaries seem to follow a step and band matrix. For example, the roles that require more technical skills normally would be on a higher band but the same step for seniority.
The problem with this is that you have some employees who have many years of experience, but were hired at an old step/band salary. This means a person with several years of the experience at the same band and level could be making less than a new hire in ...
Compensation is formally positioned as merit-based, however in practice salary increases are difficult to achieve even with strong performance. The criteria behind compensation decisions are not transparent, making it unclear how performance translates into actual salary progression.
Salaries are okay. Benefits like Urban Sports Club, mobility allowance, employee discount, mental health support, events, etc., add to the package.
Karriere/Weiterbildung wird mit durchschnittlich 3,2 Punkten bewertet (basierend auf 119 Bewertungen).
Es gibt zahlreiche Fälle von steilen Karrierewegen bei Westwing - z.B. von Manager zu Vice President. Es gibt kostenloses Coaching, was klasse ist. Es gibt auch weitere Learning & Development Maßnahmen, sowie kostenlose Bücher (z.B. über Leadership). Das L&D Angebot könnte jedoch noch weiter ausgeweitet werden, z.B. mit mehr In-Person Trainings zu Kommunikation, etc. sowie Subventionierung von externen Trainings/Academies/Summit Teilnahmen.
There is room for career progress, and getting to know a lot. Always new projects, especially now with expansion, Stores etc. Its on you to drive your development and also ask for responsibility and chances. If you’re driven you will be given them.
Regarding learning, there are insight sessions (Internal knowledge sharing) but no budget per person, you have to pitch it to your leader.
There are career opportunities, but as in many organisations they can be quite political. Some young people get promoted into Head Of or higher roles at a really young age already.
While there are some platforms available for self-directed learning, there is no structured further education or training offered unless you are in a leadership role.
either you take care of your career and work super long hours without compensation or you don't come far. career at westwing is super random. people get promoted because of politics. not really comprehensible. you can ask for education but you have to bring a strong business case - which is often declined.
Mitarbeiter:innen nehmen bei diesem Arbeitgeber vor allem diese Faktoren wahr: Kollegen helfen und Sich kollegial verhalten.
