This works well in the company

The application process was a farce. As a customer, I thought a lot of the company before.

This could be improved

At first it was a very sluggish communication. Interview dates were postponed again and again. After 2 bizarre interviews I got a promise... but on the same day in the evening a cancellation! I couldn't believe it. In my experience, dealing with applicants is unacceptable.

This works well in the company

Economical successful company with high potential, but structures and values are missing.

This could be improved

The management is very poor. The HR as well. They have to learn how to treat employees with respect. Lots of valuable employees are leaving. The management has no international mindset. They think very local and are not open for new ways.

Our successful growth in recent years has presented our employees and our company with new opportunities and challenges. Management in particular is more challenged than ever. We attach great importance to adhering to the jointly defined corporate values that bind us all together as the basic attitude of the company and each individual employee. As an independent family business, we value personal and direct discourse and are happy to take on critical questions.

The canteen's OK. So are the sales outlets. Headquarters is backwards and forwards wrong. Bad mood in and between departments.

This could be improved

The management and the personnel department would have to be fundamentally renewed. Too many machinations and intrigues lead to high dissatisfaction.

A central role of the human resources department is to identify the most important development areas of the organization and to reflect opportunities and risks back to the management. The open and direct exchange with our employees helps us in this. Our traditional company attaches great importance to continuity and is proud to have so many longstanding, experienced and loyal employees. Through the continuous further development of our organisation, we ensure that we can take our tradition and values with us into the future and remain a sustainable employer. In this development process, it is important to us that we take all our employees with us and accompany them. If decisions that are difficult for employees to comprehend are made during this process, this change process is accompanied by the human resources department.

Business is good in the company. Growth is given and money would be available.

This could be improved

Although the owner or the company is doing very well financially, the employees are not given any opportunities for further training. Even young people are not supported. Studies and professional training are not welcome. After their time at Bucherer, employees have poor chances on the job market. This seems to have method.

As an independent family business, we value personal and direct discourse and are happy to address critical issues. As a company, we specifically support our employees with a comprehensive range of internal seminars as well as in-service training. We are happy to welcome employees who take the initiative, plan their own development and want to develop themselves further.

Location of Headquarter is not as nice as the stores let you expect. Stores are beautiful.

This could be improved

Well, the management is really poor. HR is passive. People leaving the company. Lots of trouble between the divisions. A pity for a formerly good company.

The management is in a kind of "bubble" and does not allow any criticism.

This could be improved

Poor management at the headquarters is gradually wearing employees down. There have been many departures. As an insider, I can only report bad news.

Expansion is being driven forward strongly. The sales outlets are renewed and "de-dusted".

This could be improved

The company does not offer any training opportunities. The part-time studies (Bachelor / Master) are neither supported financially nor with time. However, this is common in modern companies today. So the only option for ambitious employees is to move to another company. Bucherer always likes to boast about further training, but these are worthless internal courses. Generally recognised diplomas and training are never supported. On the labour market, however, only these count.

Due to the poor IT infrastructure, working on the road is hardly possible. This is therefore not required of the bosses.

This could be improved

The digitization is still far away from this company. You work in very old systems that don't work properly. No SAP!!! The online shop is like from the 90s. Instead of rapid expansion, it would make more sense to make the existing structures fit for the future. But this is not planned in the foreseeable future. With the old systems, a lot of work has to be done manually and several times. If you come from the banking sector like me, you're used to a different infrastructure.

You can put your taker qualities to the ultimate test.

The structures and practices of the company are very outdated. This missed the connection to the digital age. However, no further training is supported either. Employees must prepare for the future privately and at their own expense.

As an independent family business, we value personal and direct discourse and are happy to address critical issues. We are happy to offer you the opportunity to discuss your personal situation or the situation in your department with a neutral representative of the personnel department. We are at your disposal at any time. We appreciate the personal and direct discourse which can be critical, because we know that we are not perfect and that not everything always succeeds, even if it is well organized. Our successful growth in recent years has presented our employees and our company with new opportunities and challenges. Management in particular is more challenged than ever. In doing so, we attach great importance to adhering to the jointly defined corporate values that bind us all as the basic attitude of the company and each individual employee. We provide employees with targeted support in the form of in-service training. Of course, we are dependent on the mutual initiative of all those involved in order to accelerate further development. As a company, we always make our decisions in close consultation with our employees and superiors in order to ensure optimum individual support and at the same time not to disregard entrepreneurial goals. We support this through training agreements.

Canteen and parking spaces (Attention: not for everyone!) are worth mentioning benefits.

This could be improved

The human resources department should warn disruptive employees who are not in control and then dismiss them. In shopping there are conditions which I cannot mention in detail, but everyone else suffers from them.

Dear former employees, dear former employee Many thanks for the detailed evaluation in the jobs.ch portal. They expressed themselves very critically on topics such as superior behaviour and colleague cohesion. We take note of this and regret that you have perceived these points negatively. We would like to talk to you directly about your feedback. Please contact us via "hr.switzerland@bucherer.com". Friendly greetings HR Bucherer AG
