This works well in the company

The company as a whole is extremely interesting. As in any large corporation, there are sometimes difficulties in communication, but I still think it's a great company.

This could be improved

Unfortunately, there is no clear structure for career opportunities, but of course you can get ahead in such a large company.

This works well in the company

- Good team - Working hours - Benefits - Free parking - Fruits

This could be improved

Cooperation between teams, not within the team, could be better, but this is a matter of character.

This works well in the company

Basically good working atmosphere, if you are not constantly transferred by the boss and do not receive work

This could be improved

Job reference still not received after more than a year. Company should consider better structures in this regard
