Is getting worse and worse
|
|
- Building looks nice from the outside
- Interesting products
- High market potential
|
Treatment of employees by the management
- Multiple employees received their notice within a letter at home without reason and without any warning beforehand
- Vacation is often not granted or already granted vacation is cancelled last minute
- Some employees are requested to work on weekends or answer calls at night, when they are sick or have already left the company
- Management refuses to pay for overhours when employees resign
- Not enough employees are hired so that pressure and additional taks rest on the remaining few
- Hardly anyone stays longer than 1 year
- Salary below average
- Promised salary increases do not happen or are postponed month after month
- Hardly anyone is ever promoted, if a higher position is open, external staff is hired due to the lack of trust in the existing employees
- Good and ambitious employees are overloaded with every kind of work until they resign
- Tasks are assigned to employees which lie far away from their responsibilities and capabilites
Other cons:
- Not enough parking spots
- Management wants to decide on every little detail but often does not have the expertise to do so, which leads to wrong or delayed decisions
- HR department is overloaded/ paralyzed

A lot of improvements needed
|
|
high growth potential, international footprint, great colleagues, modern and comfortable working environment, fast decisions, excellent CMO and COO,
|
All decisions done by Top Management, no recognition, too long working hours, staff will be overloaded with additional work/functions until they resign, payment is below average, lack of basic/updated processes, no trust into employees, lack of engineering know-how and capacity.

Recognise and award emplyoyees' achievements regularly, delegate much more responsibility/decision making to the next level management, trust your employees especially the managers. Adjust salaries to market level to get better qualifications, add qualified ressources to be fit for the future growth

Not a right place to develop your knowledge
|
|
+ Good work- life balance
+ Most of the people are friendly
+ Core working time system
+ Free coffee :)
|
- Low salaries
- The decisions always come from the high level managment
- No trainings
- No salaries raises
- Very bad quality department that forwards their job to production, engineering and R&D departments
- Unclear responsiblits... The sleepy cats push the job to the others

- Try to keep the team updated for the current state of thier projects
- Invest more money to motivate the people
-Move into one building either in Altdorf or in Mörsdorf to reduce the waited money and the reporting effort
- How about some trainings for the workers and engineers?
- remove the extra 10 hours per month policy and give the workers more attention

Looks great from the outside, but once in the door the business is tenuous.
|
|
The CEO is a strong proponent of key employees meeting and working with each other at divisions in Germany, China and US. Travel has not been limited, so there is plenty of opportunity for cultural interaction and unique experiences. Since VIA is a very small company (LLC) you will get to exercise your skills far beyond what you were hired to do. Great people and a close knit community make for easy communication and problem solving.
|
Loosing a single customer can throw a monkey wrench into the best laid plans. Nearly all direction and approval has to come from Germany. Decision making at headquarters is slow and impacts customers. If business is down cutbacks are much easier to make in the US due to the fact that US law has the least protections for its employees. The company owner micromanages to the minutest detail. When an individual reaches their thresh-hold of exasperation they then quit, the company has a high turnover rate. Benefits are very limited due to the size of the company. Salary is offered at market value and then discounted 20% and called "variable pay". There are so many conditions and restrictions placed on variable pay that it essentially never gets paid out.

Work to value and keep your employees. Stem the brain drain, each departure hurts moral. The loss of knowledge and expertise that leaves makes it easier for competitors to win. Site visits by the company owner are stressful and not necessarily conducted in a constructive way. Support site management and coach for success.
