Catastrophic work environment in Audit/Assurance
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Some of the partners are really nice and try their best to have the inclusivity EY advertises. However, this needs to be controlled overall.
Being a Big4, it is a good add-on to your CV.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Non-inclusivitiy of other nationalities, clear biasness towards native Germans during promotions/progressions, no control/action on unethical behaviour such as racist comments, unprofessional conduct, etc.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Establish the culture where everyone feels included and respected. Else, do not call people from other countries to work with you claiming that EY Eschborn is international, because it is definitely not.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
The work culture is toxic with favoritisim and office politics rampant. The company does not foster a collaborative or respectful environment, especially with people from other nationalities. The company does not foster a collaborative or respectful environment.
Kommunikation
Important information is not shared transparently or in a timely manner. Important updates are often delivered last minute, leaving employees scrambling to adjust. Undoubtedly, there is lack of recongnition making it difficult to know where one stands.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Mix crowd - some are really amazing but the others are terrible. Have experiences of German colleagues passing on racist remarks within the team and nobody raising their voice to it. Management takes no action and instead such people are promoted while others are not.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Even through there is sufficient work-life balance, but some have the habit to add unnecessary presurre leading to burnout and high turnover rates. Unfortunately, no action is taken on such people and instead they are promoted, while the others deserving are not.
Arbeitsbedingungen
The infrastructure is good, but overall environment is toxic and depressing for non-Germans.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
The inflation is not kept in mind while making salary increment decisions it seems. For benefits, the employees get same 2euro per day subsidy on food, which has been the case since forever. There is no consideration to the fact that price on the menu has doubled meanwhile.
Image
With the ongoing issues, image is definitely becoming weak.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Only sponsor and support specific further education and opportunities.
