USED to be good.

Pros

PTO, 401K and Healthcare benefits

Cons

Leadership only concerned with what is on paper and not their employees. Management has no say to help their teams because they are tied up by what leadership wants. Salary is not on pare with the median Flexibility- We had a hybrid schedule of working remote and they forced everyone back to the office 4x a week with not enough room for everyone to even have a desk.

Pros

Union contract pending. Only time will tell how this molds or curtail work politics.

Cons

Short staff, workload is unbearable. Favoritism runs rampant, to the point others are given credit for your hard work. Promotions are given to those whoever they like.

Pros

Reasonable home-office conditions (4 days HO, 1 day office) Various soft- and hard skill trainings also from outside providers available to those interested Diversity is good considering local conditions (many female managers, internationals, disabled colleagues etc.) Good work-life balance Nice office environment Not too heavy corporate culture

Cons

The company ignored the current inflationary situation for most of the year, even withholding salary raises for certain groups of employees. This resulted in an increased turnover, some teams keep operating with 1-2 missing FTE. Some teams can be very passive, and since decisions by management take long, it can sometimes feel like fighting against the wind when trying to change/improve something.
