This works well in the company

- Salary comes on time - Equipment at the workplace is not bad - Among colleagues at lower level pleasant atmosphere

This could be improved

- Steep hierarchies, communication only works from top to bottom - IT is hopelessly outdated and not very reliable - New management with a self-image like from the last century - In engineering, too many projects at the same time for too few engineers - In many places, outdated technical approaches and tools are still used - Bureaucracy and chaos at the same time

This works well in the company

- Salary comes on time - You can get high even without expertise

This could be improved

- Old-fashioned corporate culture, steep hierarchies - The company manages to maximize chaos and bureaucracy at the same time - The IT and its management must be a bad joke - Rarely seen so many clueless executives, unfortunately there are only a few exceptions - Technically not high level, so some system components belong in the museum - A larger part of the employees is shortly before retirement and seems to be already in early retirement.

This works well in the company

Many long-standing employees contribute a lot of individual knowledge. The order situation is stable.

This could be improved

Processes from earlier times of the original group are sometimes very complex. Attempts to introduce simpler innovations are not always successful and sometimes fail arbitrarily.

Thanks for your feedback. We are indeed aware of what we have in our long-standing employees. It's very valuable. Regarding your failed attempt to innovate, I would like to encourage you to stay tuned. Sometimes a no is not definitive, but perhaps it was simply not the right time. If you are not getting anywhere with your manager, you are also welcome to contact the personnel department or the employee representatives. Best regards, Florian Morgenthaler, Head HR Management

This works well in the company

Dealing with the employees is very good. The social benefits in the company are also extraordinarily good. Good workers are also kept and used in other positions if desired. Therefore the opportunities for advancement are very good.

This could be improved

Sometimes you are not so open to new things. However, it is often understandable, since one must administer several decades old documents here. But sometimes it would be welcome if you could do something easier to improve.

Thank you for your feedback and for accepting our terms and conditions of employment. As for innovations, I would like to encourage you to stay tuned. After all, we can only get ahead if everyone thinks and contributes ideas. Talk to your manager about this, and if you are stuck, you are welcome to contact the Human Resources department or the employee representatives.

The margins, that's why they can afford to survive with such bad processes.

This could be improved

No structures and processes. Everyone thinks only of himself and there is no interaction. The managers promise a lot and do not keep their promises. The fish stinks from the head.

Very interesting and varied work. Individual staff were very helpful.

This could be improved

One of the worst management scenarios I have ever seen. Zero encouragement of teamwork, no support for staff, unfriendly, cold and biased. If you are not completely fluent in German, expect to be left to fend for yourself.

No, this review is not bought. I am pleased that we have made such a positive impression on you, even though not everything that shines is gold. But I agree with you: It is already pretty cool here. And we'll keep at it... Best regards, Florian Morgenthaler, Head HR Management
