Some growing pains, and a feeling of disorganization, especially with new countries.
The wannabe horizontal startup-like decision chain leads to time losses and confusion. Although that is easy to deal with at HQ, it can get complicated when abroad.
My situation got a bit complicated after the end of my contract, with lots of administrative issues beetween countries. This is partly understandable when you ping-pong beetween countries but also a consequence of a lack of organization.
Évaluation détails :
Career opportunities : hard to say after 6 months. Probably reasonable, hard to say in my field.
Salary and bonuses : salary was in the lower 25% "usual salaries" (architect, canton ZH- source by the federal authorities), however, there are very interesting benefits for long term employees (stock options) and cool car free-fleeting system in HQ
In my case I would go for 2 stars, maybe more for the other people. No one looked broke, struggling or so, so it should be good on the long run. I put 3 based on that, might be wrong.
Ceo is really great and inspiring. Would put 6 stars there. Some unclarities with lower management staff, but they were open about it, and the situation was also pretty special and that did not help. (home office, then new office, and then Covid)
Values : brand has good core values, interesting approach. Did not connect with some people's outlook on life but everybody is different.
