- Inflexible workplace culture (e.g. : Home office only started with Covid and was restricted again to two days after lockdown, no clocking of workhours)
- Hierarchies within the company are pretty rigid, with not a lot of upward potential for young/new/female colleagues in the first five - seven years.
- Management is largely white, over 50 and male
- Core functions like Supply Chain/ logistics are regarded as second to commercial roles, by the employees as well as by some managers. This stems from the lower pay, higher workload and less development perspective within the company for Supply Chain colleagues. In result a high fluctuation among younger workforce is common.
- Salary structures are very rigid.
-There is zero consideration of differences in workload, complexity or responsibility for different jobs in the same role (Supply Chain Coordinator (SCC) or Product Manager). One SCC might oversees tribble the amounts of transport with a much faster moving product in consequence does work a lot of over hours while another SCC taking care of "smaller" products earns exactly the same even though working hours and value generated will differ immensely. Same goes for Product Managers in general.
