Vantaggi
The people in the national sales team are a really friendly group and incredibly supportive. My line manager was also very supportive and helpful, unfortunately for all involved management any higher was bad Main part of the business is selling Pokémon (asmodee distribute for them), good to work with a big brand
Svantaggi
Generally staff are taken for granted and are an after thought. E.g. London Toy Fair, a lot of pressure is put on people to make it a success, you have to work additional hours, you are away from home for 3 days, on your feet all day. All of this I could accept were there some recognition of the effort staff make. Other companies I have worked for would give you the additional time back or something. At asmodee you get an insincere email saying thank you, which based on what people put in is pitiful. There was a staff survey where the end result was significantly more people would recommend NOT working for asmodee than would recommend. Asmodee took no actions in the next 12 months which made me change people's mind as far as I saw. Staff discount - company still makes a profit out of you and will sell it to customers for less than they will sell it to their staff. Personally believe companies should look after their staff first That's the only benefit and it ain't great. Only so many board games you can buy Hybrid working policy was inconsistent and not considerate of their staff. Luckily for me personally I had a good arrangement A lot of the senior management have been in their roles a long time and even longer with the company. Result of which is very little strategic direction. "Sell more games" isn't a strategy. There are a lot of trade shows in the toy industry and the lot in senior management will let you know what a lovely time they have and all the people they speak to. There were also rumours of senior management doing clearance deals to mates in the industry which if true (probably is) says a lot about them. There are other examples but anyone reading this will get the picture
