Pros

It is a very diverse environment with employees all over the world. Company language is English although it is headquartered in Germany. For people who look to settle down in comfortable city, where the company is located is a dream city. Young team and flexible working hours are motivating

Cons

Although it is a HR consultancy company, communication within the company is the weakest point. Communication is indirect, therefore mostly not assertive. They know what is the 'correct way' and they play it. Employees are mostly overwhelmed with high workload, and complain about the unfairness issue. At the first glance it seems like the employees have accountability, nevertheless in short time you see that it is still a 'patron' company with limited area of responsibility. Hiring process is handled in an unfair way although it is a Talent Management Organization. Wages are lower than average. All in all, it is an organization full of contradictions in which processes are handled in a very amateur and even sometimes unethical way.

Pros

Great people working there, great benefits to working at the company. Very casual work environment and nice location. Good experience of what an HR consulting company does, got to work on a variety of projects.

Cons

Issues with communication between offices and efficiency with two interns simultaneously working on a similar project but not communicating. Sometimes lack of consistency with their work and lack of resources to create new software.

Pros

Young and welcoming team. Openness for different approaches and change. On-site participation in Development Centers and Assessment Centers. Intercultural team - English is the main language.

Cons

Salary is too low for students enrolled in a Master degree. Transfer to customers sometimes on Sundays and not paid. Very long working hours during a Center. Not very well trained before the first Center. No chance to get a job after the internship without the regular assessment. Not fair. Not that many development opportunities for employees.
