Thank you for taking the time to share your impressions from your former work environment in Essen. It is great to hear that you found the position to be a good part-time job for students. Providing flexible opportunities that can be well balanced with university schedules is very important to us. We understand that as a computer science (CS) student, you felt there was a lack of opportunity to develop your specific technical skills. In our stores, the primary focus is naturally on daily retail operations and customer service rather than specialized IT tasks. Since you have already moved on to new paths, a retrospective, confidential exchange is highly valuable to us so we can continuously improve the working environment on-site. If you are willing to share more specific details about your experience with your manager, please feel free to reach out to us via email at feedback@kaufland.de. Regarding your feedback about your supervisor, we take such comments very seriously. Mutual respect and fair leadership are core pillars of our corporate culture, and we expect them to be lived daily. Thank you for your openness, and we wish you all the best and much success with your studies and your future career. Best regards from Bianca from your Kaufland Team
