Pros

The company in general looks good in respect of german IT. But please avoid OpenSearch (former Geocoder) department in Schwalbach (Frankfurt).

Cons

There is no real management educated but the people who cannot make any desicion and only care about their job security. As a result the most skilled employees left the company. The only ones still stay who cannot leave because of lack of qualification or age. Besides that there is a clear distinction between german and the other employees from management perspecive. Promotions, norman salary increases, conferences (very rare btw), travels are not for you if you are not german. There is nothing even close to it in Amazon.

Pros

Leadership is very understanding and are clear SME’s that know what their doing. There’s a learning curve that’s complex, but compensation and experience is worth the training.

Cons

Internal operations could be better, but that’s expected with any growing company.

Pros

Friendly and supportive team, great work-life balance, and a positive work environment. People are easy to work with and collaboration is smooth across teams.

Cons

There are no major downsides from my experience. Some processes could be improved for efficiency, but overall it’s a solid place to work.
