Management is highly dysfunctional
Senior management picks and chooses only buddies of theirs to move up, so a regular person can only go so far
Pay is based when you come in, so if you dont come in high, you’ll never get a fair shake,
Pay is near the bottom of the industry standards, compare it for yourself, everything is up to the manager’s discretion so oftentimes that means, the manager is getting a lofty bonus.
If you are fluent in German, pump that up here, you will go places, regardless of talent, skills or experience.
For newer employees, hiring can take forever, we’ve had temps for 1-2 years sometimes just because of “delays”, just don’t let this be your best option.
