Micromanaging Directors and CEO

1,0
Nicht empfohlen
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung nicht mehr für dieses Unternehmen gearbeitet.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Highly micromanaged and misleading from the recruitment process. Only the ceo brings their dog to the office the others don’t.

Work-Life-Balance

Zero work like balance. You basically sell your soul to this company. Expect zero social life and don’t even think of planning something even for the weekend because the ceo or coo can call you at anytime to tell you need to respond to work emails. You are expected to respond to emails even if they reach you at midnight.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Nobody cares about each other. All talks about how the management is patrolling around the office.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

The worst experience I have ever had. No one within the management have any managing experience which is clear by the way they manage their team. It’s like illiterate people having power you have to put up with their stupidity. The micromanagement from directors and c level are sickening. They don’t trust you at all. Employees work even when they are sick. If they take sick leave for too long then they get fired. The management style is super passive aggressive. There is no room for proper feedback. They will smile at you and tell you that you suck.

They will make you question your qualifications as they try to make you look stupid for any kind of mistakes you may make. Human beings make mistake, which is only relevant if the mistake is made by management. God forbid you make a few mistakes, they will keep reminding you often by making a list of all of them. My manger did this and they used to remind me of my mistakes I made starting from the 1st week of joining.

Arbeitsbedingungen

Decent working conditions. Nothing to specifically mention.

Kommunikation

They tell you to over communicate but in their terms.

Interessante Aufgaben

I had no interesting tasks. They were biased towards employees.

Great team paired with interesting work/clients

4,2
Empfohlen
Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung für dieses Unternehmen gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The work at VON DER HEYDEN Human Capital is very rewarding as the learning curve is steep on the projects even for experienced hires and you get to work with extremely fascinating clients as well as candidates.
The team is great and I enjoy working with every single colleague as I know I can rely on them and they can always rely on me.
Further, I am very grateful for the high value put on family matters. Kids and dogs are very welcome to be brought to the office anytime and - in case of urgent family matters - the team would always back me instantly.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

We work entirely project based and given that we ultimately provide consulting services to our clients, pressure is high and it’s not a nine-to-five job. In my opinion, the Management can be really supportive in finding solutions to potential problems. At the same time, pressure is passed on in many instances which is not ideal.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

The company could emphasise more on internal development opportunities and foster a more open feedback culture.

RED FLAG - unprofessional, inacceptable and a extrem toxic work environment!

1,0
Nicht empfohlen
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat bis 2023 für dieses Unternehmen gearbeitet.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Working at Von der Heyden Human Capital was a nightmare. It was monotonous, the management was suffocating, and the environment toxic. They treated us like robots, completely ignoring our individuality. Onboarding was a joke, and they never acknowledged our skills or experiences. We were just thrown into projects without any say, and all we did was mindless documentation. They advertised unlimited vacation, but nobody ever got approved. Moreover, the absence of a feedback culture and disregard for employee well-being further compounded the challenges. Overall, I cannot recommend this employer to anyone seeking a fulfilling and supportive workplace.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The work atmosphere is far from positive, characterized by pervasive micro-management and a toxic environment. Even exemplary deliverables face criticism, as each director assesses based on personal preference, devoid of standardized criteria. Feedback and employee appreciation are conspicuously absent. When feedback is provided, it lacks constructive value, focusing solely on finding fault. A culture of acknowledging mistakes is entirely absent. Both directors and upper management demonstrate unprofessional behavior, adversely impacting both work quality and employee well-being. Fear of error pervades daily operations. Work-life balance is non-existent, with relentless pressure and disregard for scheduled time off evident through weekend emails and calls.

Work-Life-Balance

However, work-life balance was completely absent. I found myself constantly rearranging and canceling personal plans due to work commitments. Moreover, as previously mentioned, I was frequently contacted by my superiors outside of work hours, a practice that is clearly against company policy.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The only positive aspect of my experience was the camaraderie shared with colleagues at my level. As the saying goes, "shared misery is half the misery."

Vorgesetztenverhalten

The conduct of the supervisors is profoundly unprofessional. There's a glaring absence of appreciation or recognition for employees' efforts. The turnover rate I observed during my tenure starkly underscores this disregard for employee satisfaction.

Furthermore, micromanagement is rampant, stifling any sense of autonomy or creativity among team members. Opportunities for growth and advancement are virtually non-existent, leaving employees feeling stagnant and undervalued. These factors contribute to a toxic work environment, where morale is low and turnover remains high.

Kommunikation

Regrettably, I must acknowledge the absence of effective and consistent communication in this context. Instead, there is a prevalent culture of gossip among upper management, extending even to various team channels. This lack of discretion is unsettlingly common. Furthermore, there exists no culture of feedback or accountability, with incessant communication intruding into personal time, beyond work hours, and even during illness. To illustrate, there was an incident where I received three missed calls from my director just moments after stepping away for a restroom break. Upon returning the call, I was admonished for not immediately answering. Such incidents speak volumes about the prevailing norms.

Interessante Aufgaben

Moreover, the tasks and exercises assigned are often monotonous and uninspiring, failing to align with the diverse skill sets and interests of the employees. Rather than challenging individuals to grow and develop professionally, these assignments feel mundane and unfulfilling. Employees are left feeling unengaged and disenchanted with their work, leading to decreased motivation and productivity.

Unprofessional and unexpectable company culture

Nicht empfohlen
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat bis 2023 für dieses Unternehmen gearbeitet.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

There is nothing to appreciate about the employer. They only work for the clients and tends to fire or let go of employees to keep the clients happy no matter if the employees have family to support or not.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The micromanagement in this company is something that is traumatising. The top level management dictates the functioning of the entire company. There is no room for creativity. they have a robotic approach. Ones mistakes are exaggerated beyond necessity evidently showcasing lack of psychological safety and extreme unprofessionalism.

Work-Life-Balance

There is absolutely no work life balance in this company. All are expected to work at all times when during weekends and late nights to keep the clients happy.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Due to highly transactional work in this company the relationship between collegues was mostly limited. All worked for their bonus and there was nothing beyond that.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Supervisor behaviour is extremely unprofessional. There is no humanitarian standards. The resignation records says it all.

Kommunikation

There are no proper communication lines. There were several situations where the employees were fired on the last day of probation and no reasons were given. Other employees were even sued for resigning.

Possibility for steep learning curve - but not for most people

2,7
Nicht empfohlen
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung nicht mehr für dieses Unternehmen gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The company has a very ambitious and perfectionistic culture in which you can have a very steep learning curve, while working on interesting projects for some of the leading start-ups / scale-ups in Germany. The success of the company until now speaks for itself.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

The work is very transactional you are solely measured based on your outputs. While you learn a lot in the view months in regards to project management and various industries, this flattens out as there is no real development plan in place. The company has a culture of close supervision, which can be draining at times.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I think there there needs to be more trust and responsibility given towards employees. The majority of the work evolves around a few internal decision-makers, while the rest of the company is aiming to accommodate those few with their work. I found this harmful for the individual approaches of people and left out personal input that could have been an value-add.
