Room for improvement

|
Great colleagues who would be more than willing to give trainees a chance to make a valuable contribution
|
No job opportunities after the traineeship and the quality of the training mainly is dependent on the trainee itself rather than a holistic approach from the EPO.

Not a good place, in particular for the inmates
|
|
Can only see good things in the past before the Batistelli administration.
|
Now Batistelli is gone, but gets even worse. Future looks grim, no hope. Worst thing: can't find way out, lost all energy. Wish had never entered.

They may already have damaged the place beyond repair; anyway, they have no intention to fix it. Would probably be better to shut it down.

Unfair treatment to contractors
|
|
I met very clever people
|
The manager there was very bad and impossible to handle.
He yelled at the colleagues , fired almost all the team and was impossible to work with, but because he was internal I could see almost no consequences from their actions.
Some people changed the country for work here and were fired from one day to other.
Contractors has to pay 100% of coffee lunchs etc while internals only 50%.
I felt contractors were second class employees and no matter how well you perform, you won’t have a permanent position without contacts.
