it makes me have to work which I would rather not do
They have an active listening
They try and they want to make changes
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
GM of brand needs to be present in order for the brand to succeed.
Less marketing and more internal organizational culture, not base on attractive the new generations but more oriented to good performance
understanding short term gains can lead to long term disaster
They need expert people form the field to run the show as they just care of them seats not the running of the business as per market requirments
Go to somewhere else to work.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The worst is the company car in Germany. it is very, very low
We get a fair yearly payout based on our work ethics.
The pay is very solid compared to the market
Tuition reimbursement, help with student loans, and medical/dental benefits that start on Day 1. My husband is a pharmacist, but my health benefits are better than his, so we use mine.
Bonus package and fair salary
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
They make me feel like im easily replaceable
I would need a pay increase
The pay is not much performance drived.
For the size of the company and the annual profits, employees could be paid more
I think I was good worker but I still get fired after my contract came off.
What are some of the best things about your team?
Well we are not perfect and some team members are less supportive than others but overall we support each other when times are tough and help get the job done to achieve the desired result.
My team is kind, thoughtful, caring, and creative. I love my team.
My team are smart and driven to do excellent work. They are supportive of each other and work well together.
People are not toxic or petty here.
Some were Joking around. Some were just talking around.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
we could have better coffees
Coworkers are all talk and no action, there is no support. Coworkers actively trying to undermine other departments
There are no reprocussions for negative behavior. People can do as they please as long as the boss likes them. Blatent favorites and I'm saying that as a favorite. You made the rules.
overall performance, different approach toward work, more effort
Work as a team not turn on each other
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
coworkers and supervisors are down to earth
Unsure but we try to stay positive and have events and get togethers otherwise it is all work and meetings with no fun or personal conversation

Social gatherings, team spirit and energy
Lack of toxic or jealous people here.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
less marketing, less agenda 2030, les LGTB.... and more honest organizational cultural change for performance, flexibility and leadership
If I were to say to my manager I want a raise, with no extra work, they would tell me "impossible". Yet they routinely tack on extra work to my existing tasks, and when I ask "well, are you going to pay me more for more work?", this is also impossible. If this seems wrong to you, you are correct.
Plant management should be more familiar with the struggles of their workers before they point blame at employees that are doing the best with what they got in hand..
More cultural diversity in management roles
Change people in management level
What did you like most about the interview process?
Representative of the different hierachies were present
They kept me updated and i had time to think about the next interview
Open, engaging, fair and respectful
I heard back from them quickly.
professional enough though feel more people should be involved
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Interview everyone give them equal chance
What makes you most happy at work?
My working colleagues and the cantine
Some good nice colleagues in some functions
Freedom to work, challenges, work culture
Interaction with the coworkers and new job opportunities.
Driving change, entrepreneurial spirit, impact
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Customers actively complain about quality of the product. This is directly tied to the toxic culture and poor operator motivation
Running us leaner and leaner, no COLA, all premium soap and few values (the real $$$), NO FINANCIAL INCENTIVES, which are the ONLY valid incentives. Again, nobody can pay their bills with "Atta boy"s.
Production is prioritized over safety. Over personal health even in the time of COVID. And maybe they could pay their employees a fair wage. Although they like to understaff us and draft massive amounts of overtime instead.
The improvement must come from managment
everything, complete change is ownership and management to start
