Internal struggles made for a frustrating Work Environment

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The work itself was fun and rewarding, a lot of the people are amazing, they do at times spend on their employees for things like birthday presents or parties.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Lots of internal struggle and questionable decisions from Management, bad communication, general feeling of a downward trend.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

It really depends in which department you work, but in general at least within a lot of teams there is a positive working atmosphere.

Kommunikation

Probably one of the things that need improvement the most. Both top-down as well as between departments communication can be really frustrating and unproductive.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Really depends. A lot of key people are way over-worked and therefore often reluctant to help out. However. I have also had a lot of co-workers who were always eager to help.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

My immediate supervisors were fair and upfront, however a lot of the top-down communication, especially over the last year was at times deceptive and dishonest. On several occasions people have been pressured into positions they didn't want or denied positions for flimsy reasons.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

I am not aware of any actions in this direction.

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

Used to be competitive but not so anymore.

Image

Has been on a steady decline.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Strongly depends on the department. A lot of people don't have the time to work on their career paths. However, it should be noted that there are also positive examples of people who have been able to start at the bottom and work their way up.

Arbeitgeber-Kommentar

Sabine PastHead of HR

Dear former smecie,

Thank you for the work you did at smec and for living transparency by reviewing your time with us. I am glad to read that you enjoyed your work itself, the collaboration with (many of) your colleagues and the great working atmosphere.

I'm sorry to read that you perceived internal communication as less than optimal. We aim to communicate clearly and transparently at all times – it is, obviously, not an easy task to satisfy everyone on the “right” mode of communication. We are working on that. For example, we offer regular Q&A sessions and due to recent changes we gave you the opportunity to ask very individual questions, which were all answered by our management.

Just as we are also working on improving the cross-departmental collaboration – for example, we will rearrange our office space in a way to place the development team near our client office people to promote daily collaboration and open exchange. We expect a very positive result here.

We are surprised about your comment on the career development, as every smecies gets time to work on his/her personal development (or career path) – supported by a regular competence evaluation and check-ins with the direct manager. If your individual circumstances did not allow this, we are sorry that we could not provide you with the right support.

Thank you once again for being part of our journey and for your honest feedback. We wish you all the best.

Best
Sabine
