Pros
- good team and cooperative colleagues - good support from the direct manager - working conditions ok
Cons
- no real upper management vision; simplistic understanding of the working context/market; - very narrow minded and not willing to change; no international mentality; - focus only on reducing the costs and increasing the share price value; - no interest in scientific value creation or sustainability for the existing products; - innovation not encouraged because it is too expensive; - salaries bellow average; because of the newly implemented Gauss curve concept, no possibility to have a salary raise. The concept "defines" that less than 10% of the employee should have a salary raise; if you are working in a team with less than 10 persons, then this will never happen. The mediocrity is welcomed because it would fit in the rest of 90% remaining and it is cheaper. Excellence is not the focus since too expensive. - quality of products in free fall; expectations higher and higher; - not a motivating nor inspiring working environment.
