Don't work here if you want job security, a good salary, or career progression. It would be foolish to work here
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
You can work outside of Germany (in the EU) for 6 weeks per year, which is cool. They have very good retirement benefits. The salary is average for Munich but no cost of living increases, 13th month, or holiday pay. There is a good mix of male/female at all levels. The company does a lot to reduce its environmental impact. The office is in a good location and new. They have fun company and team events. The hierarchy is mostly flat. 40% off of products for employees, 20% off for friends and family. When a new product is launched, you get a free one.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Many of the company founders are upper management with little or no work experience before starting this company. As you would guess, they make a lot of bad decisions.
They've fired 50+ people so far this year without providing any legitimate reasons. When people are fired, there is no handover so you suddenly find yourself doing things you have no idea about. Of course, added responsibilities and work load do not earn you any more money, just more stress.
Someone tried to form a worker's Union and they fired around 10 people the very next day (very suspicious) and then had an All Hands about how unions are bad.
The company seems to be struggling financially and I wouldn't be surpised if they became insolvent before the end of 2024. Many big decisions are "gut feeling" not data-driven and this will be the end of the company
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Your employees are incredibly unhappy and you're doing nothing to fix that
Kommunikation
Improving, but still not very good
Work-Life-Balance
They do not care about how many hours you have worked and it is not recorded
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
I think there are only 2 colleagues close to their pension, but they seem happy
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
They put a big focus on sustainability, until profits started to be affected, then they just stopped focusing on sustainability
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Salary is bad. No cost of living increases, even if you've worked there for years with good performance reviews
They provide 50 euro for Urban Sports and 50% refund for the Deutschland ticket.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
There is no career progression. The only team that gets promoted is the Strategy team
