Worst Company to Work with

Business Outlook

Pros

Only pro i would say is the pay is good.

Cons

Worst company you can work with, no recognition no matter how good you work. Worst part about it is the toxic environment and jealous colleagues. If you make good sales, you colleagues will try to pull you down by making fake complaints to management. No job security whatsoever, they will say they promote you today and tomorrow they will fire you for no reason. Once again do not work for this company.

Pros

- Talented and well-meaning colleagues in the engineering teams. - Office is well-equipped, though not easily accessible from central Munich.

Cons

- Highly controlling management style, with limited space for independent thinking or feedback. - Strong reliance on informal networks for career advancement; transparency is lacking. - Disconnect between branding and internal practices—decision-making is slow, and innovation is often blocked by rigid hierarchies. - Limited benefits beyond base salary; minimal focus on long-term employee development. - Leadership accountability is weak; difficult situations or complaints are often ignored. - Engineering functions are gradually being relocated abroad, with unclear communication to affected teams.
