Seems like a perfect remote job opportunity but turned out to be toxic in several aspects
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Atmosphere with the team was usually great, management had a very “micro” way of overseeing tasks and projects. Some encouragement but also public airing of mistakes, even if they didn’t try to get the full picture beforehand
Kommunikation
Company updates were shared regularly, which is positive.
Communication within teams or one on one lacked empathy, felt super top-down majority of the time.
Work-Life-Balance
You have to set clear and unwavering boundaries. Flexible hours are great, but if you’re not careful you end up being contacted after your work day with “urgent” matters
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Sadly, the way management deals with employees (communication, trust, expectations) is not encouraging or promoting joy and growth, most of the time. Feedback is always given freely in order to “push” but never received well in return.
Interessante Aufgaben
Clients and subject matters are highly interesting. “Product” as auch is unique.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Almost no benefits, salary is on the low end. Of course you don’t work for the money alone, but you want to be compensated fairly, especially in this industry.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Many ways to educate yourself.
