Pros

Positiv hervorzuheben ist die starke Identifikation vieler Mitarbeitenden mit der Marke – es gibt ein gewisses Maß an Stolz, Teil eines so traditionsreichen Schweizer Unternehmens zu sein. Auch in Bezug auf Prozesse und Projekte konnte man – sofern man Eigeninitiative zeigte – wertvolle Erfahrungen sammeln. Die Schnelllebigkeit der Projekte bot Lernchancen, insbesondere im Bereich internationales Projektmanagement, Eventkoordination und interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit.

Cons

Das Betriebsklima war toxisch und von starkem Hierarchiedenken geprägt. Zwischenmenschliche Wärme oder echtes Interesse am Wohl der Mitarbeitenden waren selten. Viele Kolleg:innen wirkten ausgelaugt, frustriert oder resigniert – was sich langfristig natürlich auch auf die Motivation und Produktivität auswirkte. Trotz großer, öffentlichkeitswirksamer Projekte und ambitionierter Marketingkampagnen standen intern kaum ausreichende Ressourcen zur Verfügung. Viele Teams arbeiteten mit veralteten Tools, unterbesetzt und mit kaum Budget. Das führte regelmäßig zu Überstunden, Frust und vermeidbaren Fehlern – während nach außen hin alles glänzen musste. Leider überwog in meiner Erfahrung ein Klima der Angst und Unsicherheit.
