A company with a bright future is developing to a top employer!
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Every level of management is approachable for ideas. If you are ambitious you can really change a lot.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Not an employer for everybody. The company is no place for low paced unambitious people.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Work more and standards and automation. Some processes are still really old school.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Very good. Positive, friendly and enjoyable.
Kommunikation
Information can still get lost sometimes but the communication improved a lot. Regular updates of the C-Levels give a good insight on the strategy. On team level superiors can be sometimes overwhelmed by too many direct reports. A change in the organizational structure could help.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Very good. No fights, everything is professional. Before corona lots of activities and parties.
Work-Life-Balance
Very good! No stupid leading by principles. If holidays are needed and there is somebody who can cover your tasks, holidays are being approved on short notice. The company is also flexible in many other matters. I have never felt unwelcome to ask for something, the company wants to help and wants its employees to be happy and healthy.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Depends on the individual superior. Sometimes it takes too long to identify non-performer as well as in the management and in the professional staff. The company needs more experts and highly motivated people to cope with what’s coming. Narrow minds which just keep repeating what they learned 10 years ago are not innovative and future oriented enough for zooplus.
Interessante Aufgaben
You can definitely grow your skills if you just want to. Changes between departments are possible. There is also nobody stopping you from running interesting projects even if they are not in necessarily in your field. There is no way of getting bored in this fast growing company, if you just have the slightest drive to improve things and if you are willing to look a bit beyond your daily tasks.
Gleichberechtigung
Did not hear of any issues. The company consists of a broad multicultural labor force and operates all over the EU. But employees are coming from all over the world and everybody is allowed to be as individual as they want to be.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Everybody is being treated responsibility.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Great! Nice offices, well equipped meeting rooms. Good chairs, good coffee machines, free drinks. Full equipped kitchens. You can’t ask for more.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
The company is donating a lot of pet food, occasionally employees support animal related facilities. I am not aware of any activities targeting improving the environment. But! The company handled corona perfectly. They made home office mandatory from the very beginning and supported with office equipment for home office. They offered tests and made sure that everything is save and clean when being in the office. Keeping employees save and healthy was and is the managements highest concern.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Salaries are not standardized, what can become frustrating. But good and hard work is recognized and salary increases can be openly discussed.
Image
People who know zooplus have a really good impression of the company.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
No guided path but plenty of possibilities for the ones who want to develop. The company tries to support every individual development need.
