Svantaggi
As many other reviews have mentioned, the leadership at Zalando is unfortunately subpar as there are no proper trainings for (new) leads or repercussions for bad leadership. The internal survey used for measuring team health does not result in any consequences when scores are alarmingly low. Instead, toxic positivity is promoted and teams are told by leadership to only leave positive survey comments as negative ones are not welcome. Concerns and issues get ignored and the people sharing them are labeled "problematic" and "toxic". Discrimination cases get solved by changing team structures as, according to Zalando logic, the things a person did to you go away when they are no longer your lead. As the 360° feedback is directly linked to promotions and salary increases, unless you shamelessly self-promote at any chance and your lead likes you, you will not move forward with your career. The collected peer feedback gets strongly filtered through your lead and is therefore highly subjective and not transparent. There are some great teams at Zalando with amazing leads but the general stance seems to be that people are seen as disposable as the name "Zalando" is still bringing enough people in who are willing to accept conditions seriously affecting their mental health and well-being for a year or two in order to being able to add the experience as a milestone to their CV...
