This works well in the company

Intensive interview over 4 hours with plant tour, I find top but somewhat "exaggerated" for a laboratory assistant position, is now times no CEO position.

This could be improved

As all the other reviews have said, the salary offer is bordering on insolence, without naming any numbers, my current employer pays me 2300 CHF more per month. With the shortage of skilled workers nowadays, the company should fight for the applicant and not the other way around. Please apply in other companies, the jobs are available no matter whether as a lab technician/chemist or in the office! Please take a month longer and have something better in hand.

This works well in the company

If you like to work and want to make a difference, this is the place for you. True to the motto who wants to, can. Many opportunities for further development are offered, such as internal courses, training courses, funding for further training, etc. You can work independently, but you always get support from all areas if something is unclear or you have questions.

This could be improved

The company should present its benefits to the outside world. There are many positive aspects, such as free parking, a good pension plan, its own canteen and fire department, modern workplaces and a lot of investment in the future. New jobs are being created and even career changers get the chance to join the chemical industry.

Those who work there for longer have a large circle of colleagues. Great value is placed on safety.

This could be improved

The infrastructure of some facilities is getting on in years. Renewals should be planned there.

Good performance is rewarded. If you want to make a difference, you've come to the right place. Exciting and challenging projects are underway. The development and expansion is very dynamic. Helping hands and heads are always welcome. Problems are solved quickly and in a small group. I would apply here again

This could be improved

Promotion could be stepped up. More pay is always cool Covered parking space with electricity

Kantine ist ok. Umgang zwischen Mitarbeitenden gleicher Hierarchiestufe ist gut.

This could be improved

Bessere Arbeitsbedingungen, mehr Gehalt, Fluktuation verringern und allgemein mehr Wertschätzung gegenüber den Mitarbeitenden.

This works well in the company

The interview was very long (4 hours), some of the questions were very personal and had nothing to do with the job. I'm not gonna apply to Dottikon again.

This could be improved

Dottikon should only invite applicants who are really suitable for the advertised position. The interview should be shortened to one hour and should not contain any inadmissible, far too personal questions.

This works well in the company

You can make a difference if you have the drive yourself. With the expansion, there will be more jobs in completely new laboratories. A lot of time is invested in the training of employees.

This could be improved

The company should present itself even more clearly to the outside world and show what all possibilities are here. New employees are needed more quickly for the newly created jobs.

This works well in the company

Structured approach (but surprising for the applicant), looks serious. Married and open information.

This could be improved

If you agree 42.5 h/week contractually, the long-term expectation cannot be 45 h/week, something is wrong ... I find it exemplary that one is pointed out (not all companies do that), but reprehensible that it is expected (contradictory to the contract)...

Es wird beim Bewerbungsprozess ein hoher Aufwand betrieben......................................

This could be improved

When interviewing for a job, one should not approach the tactic of talking down applicants... In order to keep wages low, for example, the shift system is also inhuman.... Further training is not possible with the system without further ado. There's too many companies out there to have to do this to yourself.

Challenge and encourage

Current employee

20 September 2018

There are many points where Dottikon is strong: you are very quickly introduced to practical work, you get challenging tasks in exciting projects and a lot of responsibility. The mood and the contact among each other are friendly and one pulls together at a rope. The equipment meets modern standards. People who want to develop professionally are given the opportunity here and can make a big difference. The company can look back on a long tradition and has been a stable employer in the region for over 100 years. A point at which, however, many employees with tertiary degrees are bothered: The annoying asymmetric overtime regulation. The first 2.5 hours of overtime will be cancelled each week, but minus hours will be counted from the first minute. If the management were to take corrective action here, employee satisfaction would undoubtedly increase.
