Pros

Very strong culture, great vibes and diverse clients. AMAZING global connections with other offices.

Cons

Processes are not very well thought out, the company is growing very fast and perhaps cannot keep up with its own pace

Cool Company in Germany, questionable Management

Pros

This is really a great company with an awesome, highly qualified team

Cons

In the interviews the job is described totally different than it actually turns out. After hiring, nobody really cares if you are happy or not. People are just assigned on projects not considering the qualifications and then everybody wonders why people are frustrated or leaving. The GM is a numbers person (which for the company obviously is great), but he is not people person. The internal communication is terrible. Salary is low and it is not even adjusted to the normal inflation rate. There are talent talks twice a year and these usually turn out extremely demotivating - personal and job development are not really supported.
