Pros

- Talented and well-meaning colleagues in the engineering teams. - Office is well-equipped, though not easily accessible from central Munich.

Cons

- Highly controlling management style, with limited space for independent thinking or feedback. - Strong reliance on informal networks for career advancement; transparency is lacking. - Disconnect between branding and internal practices—decision-making is slow, and innovation is often blocked by rigid hierarchies. - Limited benefits beyond base salary; minimal focus on long-term employee development. - Leadership accountability is weak; difficult situations or complaints are often ignored. - Engineering functions are gradually being relocated abroad, with unclear communication to affected teams.

Pros

I joined a few months ago, and I instantly felt like I belonged to the Orange Team. The board's vision for the business are aligned with my values. In the past, I have also worked for large, global corporations where there was less interaction between the board and the rest of the organization. Here, we believe that our work has been seen and that our opinions and suggestions have been heard. Looking forward to the exciting journey at Sixt.

Cons

Some procedures and methods must be adjusted because the company is going through internal changes, but I don't see this as a significant disadvantage because it might also be seen as an opportunity.
