A place where you'd better not work

Pros

- company mobile plan: you get a sim card, private use allowed - fruits for free - bonus at year end - flexible working hours

Cons

- work is not interesting, you learn nothing: they segment each task so that you just act as a robot. They are not interested in improving processes, actually they even are reluctant to do so. - constantly under pressure: they do not hire enough employees for the work to be achieved. - mobile phone + laptop : you have to be available and reachable even during the weekend. Boss and colleagues reach out to you for work reasons unexpectedly, so you can never shut down from work. - bad location: their building is in Ruisbroek, in a kind of abandoned zone, about 5m away from the Ruisbroek train station, where you have 2 trains / hour. Trains are always delayed and it is difficult to get there. - the building in itself is not well maintained, making work conditions unpleasant (restrooms are dirty, light bulbs are not changed for weeks,...) - unprofessional work environment: some of the colleagues behave beyond what one can expect from a workplace. Ex: very loud music all day long, coarse talks between colleagues, there are no limits, no respect, no value for diversity and no inclusion. - team building activities are all about drinking and partying, encouraged by the management team. - Management is novice and does not inspire: the manager does not care about your personal development. Worse: he does not care about your skills and knowledge. Very quickly you'll have the impression that you are responsible for everything, just because they don't take their own responsibilities.

Poorly Run, Loss of direction or focus. Doomed.

Pros

Some very talented, dynamic thinkers in lower level positions. I met some wonderful people who are destined for great things should they be allowed to contribute their strengths and ideas. The attempts at company culture can be fun-- monthly outings, snack room, weekly all-hands meetings.

Cons

I have never encountered a management team that had such a disrespectful way of leading their staff. It is clear that the people in power got their due to their personal connections to the French Counterparts and not due to their leadership or actual skills. It is also very clear that the company is struggling with direction and is still trying to figure out how to do the FUNDAMENTALS of their e-commerce business which is frightening. There have been four CEOs in 2 years that have all been fired by the French because they are forward-thinking, strategic and know the US Market. If you aren't French, you have no chance for growth at this company. The entire Brands Department is new within the past year and there is still turn-over if you aren't completely worshipping the executive team, who are utterly disgraceful leaders. Compensation is below average and you will work hard for peanuts.

Pros

Atmosphere in my team was great!

Cons

The managers abilities weren’t up to par which made the work not as challenging as I wished it would have been. The area of the offices is in an industrial area, the parking facilities are very poor and the office in itself doesn’t match with the vibrant and young image they want to have.
