This works well in the company

I can't think of much right now. At least the parking spaces are still free. Due to the high change of personnel one gets to know new people again and again.

This could be improved

Unfortunately a not very capable and in addition to that a detached and self-confident management which unfortunately has an additional effect on the bad working atmosphere. A lot of flexibility is required and there is a high pressure to work. Improvements could be made and also a wage increase would be appropriate as compensation.

This works well in the company

Very good team collaboration at manufacturing sites eg St. Gallen, Geneva. Middle Management is very well supporting and developing their staff. Great investments and very high innovation strategy, employees can support ambitious projects which could be beneficial for their career.

This could be improved

Working climate at manufacturing sites slightly better compared to headquarter. Fast growing company with multiple challenging projects, not every employee can keep the pace, therefore more staff required to fully meet the ambitious goals.

This works well in the company

Good salary, shares package. Location close to the airport, good for frequent travellers.

This could be improved

Not a single leader. Only managers thinking about their own career. Employees like numbers, hired and fired. Vifor should be more careful to the human capital, to the human value. It is common to see employees hitting extra bonus, nice words and after being fired. Due to internal rearrangement....people=numbers= box in the organigrams

High pace and lots of change

The company is successful and work is interesting. Some things about the organisation remain unclear because of the fast growth and multiple changes. Environment is exciting. Proud to be part of a Swiss company shaping the industry. Great company values.

Working climate is very bad. Superiors aren't very accurate.
