Vantaggi
* Flexible WFH policy of 23 days a quarter. * Diverse team (every nationality to work with). People are great in general. (But also very team dependent. Also had some terrible managers before in Emma). * Culture is great in other offices (Lisbon and Manila) - not necessarily Frankfurt office. * General work life balance is okay but some teams/roles overwork still. * Financially - company overlook seems okay. Despite the general financial struggle over the past few years (i.e. layoffs in June 2024) and slight shrinking in revenue due to the global economic crisis, overlook seems okay.
Svantaggi
* Had a huge global layoffs in June 2024. * Changing promotions/salary increase cycle to be longer and extremely difficult. Only gives 3-5% increase on performance-base and claims the employees should be thankful about this. Absolutely does not match inflation and living cost in Frankfurt. * No overtime payment. Force free overtime up to 10hrs by adding this onto the employee contract. * No bonus policy. * No useful corporate benefits. No free lunch/lunch budget or transportation benefits. (also no work phone). * Becoming stricter on the WFH policy so basically losing all the Pros. * Some of the senior management is way too young with no proper work experience. All 'home grown' talent that have just been in Emma since intership (uni graduation). People who do enter with 5+ good work experience goes under these people. Makes no sense.
