Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay after some time, work/life balance might be ok if it's an office job.

Cons

Very unprofesional management team with the new GEA One structure, people getting fired for no reason, in order to "maximise profits", managers make sure they maintain a good position, whereas others might just survive from month to month. Poor decisions, no uniformizations, some employees are treated differently from others (although similar positions), favoritism, overall mysterious atmosphere in the office, management's decisions lead to people stabbing their backs to get ahead, horrible atmosphere.
