      Thank you for your review and we are so happy to hear that you enjoyed working here. We pride ourselves on our flat hierarchy and the empowerment of our employees. We are of course very proud to be a Swiss company but with a presence in 101 countries we are also very international and we persevere with a global but local culture.

      Good company but not a very good environment for a new talent to grow. Especially HR and top management needs to change

      Sales manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary on time Good compensation as per industry Good team to work

      Cons

      1. Exploiting policies by HR for variable pay ( completely manipulated system not at all in favour of employee. No performance driven incentives) 2. HR is very unfriendly and rigid in the issues related to convenience of employee. No sense of any empathy. Intentionally delaying timely promotions of people citing totally irrelevant excuses. 3. HR is very rigid in salary negotiations and non cooperative in majority of the issues. 4. Favouritism in the management only preferred people grow. 5. No people development discussion within the organisation for people to grow.
