Pros

- Very good technology exposure - Diversity and international culture - Very nice colleagues

Cons

- Unfair, unrealistic and very unreliable one way assessment system - Growing does not depend on any materialistic reasoning, the lead just needs to like you! - Salaries are falling behind the market - If you are not very good at impression management, you will probably just spend a couple of years in the company if you care about growth.

Pros

Great colleagues in the former marketing department. Lots of opportunities to learn (on the job and training). Set your own goals for projects and development. Focus on staying on top of the game.

Cons

Constantly changing strategy, with the risk of your whole department being thrown out at any time. Feedback and promotion round is only once a year and it is a decision based on a recommendation, no conversation / negotiation possibilities. Also, your development is very dependent on the manager you have. Salaries in commercial roles are not great for German standards.
