Siemens reviews

Bottom line is the top priority. Management at the branch level has no clue what it takes to get the job done. So much bureaucracy and office politics, it's like working for the government. Corporate preaches ethics and integrity but then don't follow their own standards. Germany instituted SAP even though it did not match what we needed for our industry, causing a tremendous increase in work load and loss of productivity. Not a pleasant place to work. People are overworked and stressed out.

Often overworked, worked multiple weekends, 10-12 hr shifts, overnight, traveling for work and at the end of the day they still had the audacity to put me on a PIP. I’m not entirely sure what their bottom line for “acceptable performance” is. The day I was put on one I dusted off my resume and got out of there ASAP. Organizational restructuring happened during my time there that gave other groups more work on top of their pre-existing roles without raises. And all in all, there was about 5-6 other co-workers in my overarching group alone that had left the company entirely in 2025 due to poor pay and being overworked. Heard through other workers that people had also left the company quite often, from shop floor workers to senior management positions.
