Svantaggi
For the entire year I worked there I saw around 21 employees leave the company, either by being fired because they "didn't meet the criteria" or due to the amount of stress and unprofessional behaviour of management. Every week I either suffered or witnessed work harassment. I saw three of my colleagues being yelled at by leadership, as if it were a parent telling of a 3-years old child. I saw my two bosses being fired accused of stealing information from the company and had to experienced how leadership libelled them in front of all the company. More than once me and some of my colleagues were discriminated for not being "Northen Europeans". There is a lot of micro-management, little trust and a lot of pressure. Every single thing had to go through leadership (do not mistake with management) to be approved, otherwise we risked that all our efforts would be squandered by leadership's comments and views on everything. There was not a single day where they didn't make me feel disposable and unvalued. Very self-centered leadership, with zero commitment towards their employees, but expecting every single one of them to burn themselves out for their company. The excuse that it was still a start-up was used to justify everything, from our low salaries, to goign against the core values of the company (sustainable development). Very low salary for the amount of responsibilities and when compared to the standards of the Danish labour market.
Vantaggi
The concept is interesting and the quality of the products is good. The employees are nice and are giving a lot of energy for the company.
Svantaggi
Management is unfortunately very bad. Their communication is degrading at times, they are putting a lot of pressure on employees and are lacking social empathy. Throughout my whole employment period, there never developed any kind of trust in management. You are made feeling very replaceable and are seen only as a little part in achieving the companies goal, which is good sales numbers (long before social or environmental sustainability), but never feel like you are part of a common goal. Management would call at all times of the day and week and would expect you to always put work first without any acknowledgement of these extracurricular efforts. If you value open and and honest communication, this place is not for you. It is a quiet stressful environment with almost zero time given or interest shown for creating a safe and trusting company culture, employees' concerns or inputs.
