Arrogant Germanic company that thinks it's diverse and international - Global Product Manager Hilti Group Employee Review

1. Decisions around new product development cycles are politically driven 2. Rigid and hierarchical structures with top-down management approach 3. Highly complex matrix structure leading to an overly political organisation 4. Like most places your line manager plays a huge role in your overall experience so pick your manager very carefully 5. Appraisal system is not fair or transparent and is easily manipulated to suit political agendas 6. Conservative Germanic company that is generations away from understanding what inclusion means (the board composition is full of white men) 7. Their recruitment process is flawed (they hire you, relocate you from abroad then the same people force you out of the company only within a few months just because they don't like who you are or what you like) 8. They are very good at sweeping things under the carpet when things go awry
