      Management Creates a Toxic Environment and Stressful Deadlines

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - The hybrid work model offers flexibility (40% office, 60% home, but it's not strict). - A pension match is a good perk. - Health insurance is okay, though they’ve cut costs recently. - Dental insurance is included. - You get a 40% discount on items shipped and sold by Zalando in your country of work. - The salary is good overall.

      Cons

      - I found out that a peer was offered a much higher salary than me during their interview, which feels unfair and unprofessional, especially since the Australian interviewer handled it and didn't do the same for me. I am probably on the lower end of the budget even tho I was "exceptional" during the interview. - New projects force you to work long hours, and context switching is draining. - Deadlines matter more than proper estimations. - You don’t have a say – you just have to meet deadlines, no matter how tight they are, even if the project isn’t released to the public. - The environment is very toxic, especially from upper management. One Canadian manager, in particular, makes things worse with their attitude. - No bonus - No real career progression, as you can't focus on your goals - Salary increases and promotions processes are very complicated and hard to understand.

      Pros

      Zalando has managed to keep its distinctive culture despite all the changes and challenges during the years. You'll have lot of very talented and smart colleagues working with you to learn from and work on interesting topics.

      Cons

      Fast-paced industry, which might not be for everyone, and even if Zalando has a special culture it is still a large corporation nowadays.
