A company with poor management who only paper over the cracks - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Bene

I worked here for almost 7 years. Bene was a nice company to work for, with a lot of talented people and the products were cutting edge & top quality. The company was moving towards being more of a corporation but it still had a friendly family feel, which encouraged team work throughout its European offices. When I left it was a very turbulent time, as there had been a lot of redundancies and a big effort to re-structure the company. This was badly needed as the company had acquired another large German organisation a few years beforehand and had failed to streamline anything. The problem was the company was then in financial trouble and they were making mass changes all of a sudden in every department, some of which drastically effected employee bonuses. This gave me the shove I needed to leave but it was time I moved on anyway.

Poor remuneration No benefits I never once had an appraisal, personal development plan or even a conversation about progressing within the company

Freedom in decision making, linear management structure, fast problem solving, positive attitude, helpful team, professional administrative support and back office department, very responsible designers, team of logistics and service department. Good relationship with clients.

Absence of solid organizational structure, of management strategy and motivation for employees (not other departments as we are a separated dealer).
