Currently taking advantage of long term employees who actually care
Pros
- Career evolution is possible if you are passionate, talented & assertive - Beautiful region, all the benefits of French labor law - Interesting missions within the company - International culture
Cons
- During Evolution, you did not consult or care about the opinions of anyone below AD (what happened to bottom-up management style?) - The company is not promoting people during Evolution, even though they are doing new, more demanding roles for more than a year (not being paid or recognized for actual work done) - Very low salary, especially over time (HR leans too heavily on the notion of engagement and doesn't realize that we have to make enough salary to not be stressed - this is an expensive region) - Upper management simply lie when pressed in public during Q&As, especially about current & planned gender equality - Very heavy politics that allow stagnant senior level management to remain influential & block real innovation - Constant restrictions on budget, meaning if you really care about your work you have to pay for your own tools while upper management get rich - HR very inflexible, has no real interest in people and doesn't follow through with meaningful employee initiatives (such as flexibility charter & bottom-up feedback, esp. during Evolution) - they just give lip service to these ideas to attract talent & congratulate themselves for their "modern" approach
