      German Company with North American Location

      Director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good salary, benefits. Knowledgeable and supportive colleagues to work with on a local level.

      Cons

      Lack of local decision making authority, decisions made in Germany and mandated for other locations. Work/life balance is stated but not practiced. People are a number or email address and dispensable based on company performance. No real leadership, there are followers of others because of authority, not because of loyalty. If there is a true understanding of the company it is easy to determine that the daily work does not support a meaningful cause.
