Vantaggi

-Good payment if you compare with other hospitality players, however not if you compare to other tech companies - Quite stressless job, you rather die of "bored-out syndrome" than "burn out" -Mostly very respectful and good relationships in teams, area managers, inclusion and diversity is important, everybody is treated with respect - Good offices around the world, central locations, funky design - Benefits: wellness, travel, discounts etc. - Very good work-life balance - very open culture, no hierarchy, it is easy to approach any team player up to C Levels - ability to relocate - social security: thanks to the workers' council in Germany you feel safe, even if the company is going through big challenges

Svantaggi

- lack of innovation, the company takes years to introduce a simple feature, which the main competitor do overnight - work in market management teams has become extremely monotonous with the introduction of artificial intelligence to the processes, people are bored and not challenged, systems often give nonsense hints regarding what you should talk to the partner about - internal systems allow a lot of room for cheating (point capture system), which gives often a benefit to some people and leaves others behind, depending on your luck and market allocation. At the end of the day, people get rewarded not for real work, but cheating, which is extremely demotivating to those, working hard. - there is not set-up career plan for you. Promotion opportunities in Germany are rare and all internal and external candidates have the same rights so that you really have to fight each time a new door opens, which leaves many people sitting there for 10-15 years on the same chair.

Vantaggi

Good pay, supportive manager, and genuinely pleasant colleagues.

Svantaggi

Frequent reorgs and shifting strategic direction made it difficult to build momentum or plan long‑term. Over time, contractor roles became increasingly narrow and production‑focused, which limited opportunities for meaningful skill development. Responsibilities that originally included project management were reduced to primarily email production work. There’s also a broader corporate pattern where work is expected to be completed exactly as written, with little room for judgment or improvement. Even small, quick optimizations can lead to pushback rather than appreciation, creating an environment where going “above and beyond” requires multiple layers of approval — which defeats the purpose of being proactive in the first place. Finally, there’s an in‑office expectation (less strict than for full‑time employees, but still present) for work that can be done entirely remotely. This tends to benefit highly social personalities, but for those who prefer focused, independent work, it feels unnecessary. Social dynamics also play a noticeable role; if you’re not immediately well‑liked or you make a single early mistake, it can create a self‑fulfilling perception that’s difficult to overcome.
