Engaged employer

The company's work culture is undeniably toxic - Information Technology ERGO Group (Germany) Employee Review

Pros

Good brand to associate with

Cons

The HR lead demonstrates a concerning level of incompetence, which has contributed to a pervasive atmosphere of anxiety, negativity, and distrust among the employees. Employees' queries and appeals are consistently dismissed by HR, who often belittle their significance or place blame on the employees themselves. This attitude fails to recognize the value of employees' education, knowledge, and skills. Furthermore, the HR practices differ greatly from what is outlined, resulting in unfair treatment. HR intrude into employees' personal lives and private spaces, crossing boundaries by publicly commenting on their activities, spreading gossip, and causing unnecessary disruptions. Such behaviour includes engaging in inappropriate discussions, making public remarks, and engaging in other related behaviours. These actions not only erode trust but also contribute to a toxic work environment. It is also worth noting that HR behaves differently when senior officials visit from headquarter, indicating a lack of consistency and fairness in approach.
