Still OK, but bad trajectory...
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Office locations, generally good people working on the projects.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Group management is disconnected, and I do not think the employees believe in it any more. Compensation is now definitively too low for what the company offers...
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Serious changes in the group management and the group strategy are advised! If your employees do not believe in the management and the strategy any more → the company will fail. Unfortunately, I believe that this is the case here. I feel a huge disconnect between group management and employees.
The existing culture has been removed, but not been replaced. It is unclear what we stand for now: Do we want to be just another Accenture clone? A greenwashing company? This is something the company must work on!
And a strategy and identity without the buy in of the employees is not worth a lot. Instead of trying to convince the employees that the strategy (that has failed us the last years repeatedly...) is right, why not start listing to your employees and adapt?
Arbeitsatmosphäre
In general, the atmosphere is good, but it has worsened significantly in the last years. Good people start to leave.
Kommunikation
The company does not like to communicate bad news. Instead, they are tried to be sold as positive or neutral changes. This makes the communication inauthentic, I often felt "lied at". There was some small progress in the last months.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Good colleagues collaborating. Makes fun.
Work-Life-Balance
It is your responsibility, but the company supports you in keeping a healthy work-life balance. However, keep in mind that this is a service company. So, in general, there is always something to do, and you have to actively take your breaks.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Usually good, but many changes (leavers, reorganizations etc.) and the new organization does not fully work (yet). However, this seems to differ quite a lot by department, and there are departments I would not want to work for...
Interessante Aufgaben
Usually good, but obviously, you can get a less challenging project occasionally.
Gleichberechtigung
A lot of talk and some actions. Still, there are e.g. women lacking, esp. in mid-management. No one seems to question why this is the case and what we should change.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Seems to be good, esp. compared with the competitors.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Top offices, good devices, good and helpful internal IT → What do you want more?
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Reality: Average. We do try to avoid being too bad, but that's it.
However, there is so much greenwashing and talks about "sustainability" and "impact" without any consequences, it's getting really annoying. If you want to do something for the environment: Do it! There would be many things (reducing air travel, getting rid of some customers, supporting minorities etc.) → but those might cost money. So we just keep on making nice slides and talks instead. This feels quite dishonest...
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Traditionally low, but has quite significantly worsened in the last years. Esp. as the other perks (like education etc.) were reduced without compensation. The company seems to invest only in the global growth, but not into the Swiss Workforce. I'm afraid this will backfire...
Image
Still good
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Training and education had been the cornerstone of the company but has been cut down quite a lot. It's still average, but not more than that.
