It could have been a good work experience... but it was a disaster
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
International, friendly and motivated people...
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
but unfortunately for me I had to work everyday with someone toxic which sadly makes EQS Group one of the worst workplace I ever been.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
I am not the first and sadly probably not the last person who experienced extrem micromanagement (which leads to demotivation, burn out or resignation). Please take a closer look at the high turnover, it's often a red flag that something (someone) is acting wrongly.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
During meetings, some people are put forward more than others and monopolize the floor, which is a pity.
Kommunikation
There is no open communication when people leave the company. Many times in my department or my market people left and it was not even mentioned.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Most people are talented, motivated and supportive.
Work-Life-Balance
There are always lots of work to do.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Very bad.... I came in super motivated and eager to learn and micromanagement & unconstructive criticism destroyed it.
Interessante Aufgaben
In my case lots of repetitive and boring tasks. I was not challenged and had someone on my back supervising all what I was doing. My skills were not used.
Gleichberechtigung
It's a very traditional company. C-level positions are often held by German men. More diversity in higher position should definitely be considered (and I am not only talking about Woman).
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Below average.
Image
Transparency and Trust are just words they put to look nice on their website, I did not experience it.
They are proud of their surveys where everyone seems to be happy, but when you discuss with your colleagues you realized that there are lots of frustration, unsolved and untold problems.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
There is a « focus day » during which employees have the opportunity to learn new skills. Some of my colleagues were lucky enough to have a manager who respected this time and encouraged them, unfortunately this was not the case for me.
No real possibility to grow.
