Evaluaciones de On

Teams are generally overworked and junior. Multiple people were on burnout leave during my tenure. They were revamping compensation, as what they were paying before was close to slavery. However, I later found out that some Swiss people earned more than non-Swiss for similar jobs/categories. I hope they also fixed this gap. I also heard back in the day that managers were asked to leave positive reviews on Glassdoor, which is to bare in mind as the overall rating might be skewed towards the positive. They capitalize on cheap labor from poorer European countries (Spain, Portugal, Cyprus, and so on), much like many companies elsewhere hire Indians/Bangladeshis. However, they sell it as working in a “multicultural environment.” The youngsters they hire are oftentimes in their first or second job experiences, working their asses off because (a) either of a perky title that doesn’t match their seniority, and/or (b) they don’t know any better. The company was complete chaos. There weren’t processes in place (no documentation, no legacy policies), and I barely received any training, so they left me to fend for myself. I honestly do not understand how this company is holding up in the stock market. Maybe it’s the Federer influence, because I do not believe that a public company should despise proper documentation so much. In my specific department (and I’m not claiming every department is the same), the office culture is a show-off, runway-style culture. Even back when the policy required going into the office only once a week, the real expectation was visibility. I once asked a Swiss colleague on my team what advice she would give me to succeed in the role, and one of her answers was: show up as many days as possible and be in the office as often as you can. Now that the office-attendance policy has increased in days, I guess the culture hasn’t evolved—it has simply been legitimized. They promote a diversity culture, which in principle should be a good thing, but they fell for positive bias/positive discrimination. Such as: “Let’s hire women only for male-dominated roles despite not finding absolutely anyone competent for the position and drive male resignations up along the way.” Let me tell you (from my chair in the LGBTQ+ community): your fake diversity propaganda can’t compensate for your toxic management—sorry. Nor does the fake mental health program you are investing in. I personally suffered a racist comment from a Swiss guy on the leadership team because of my nationality. And because I felt so lonely—my manager being also Swiss—I didn’t dare to speak out. He literally said to me, on a leadership team call: “We Swiss and Germans don’t wait for things to happen like [my nationality]; we take action.” I was already working head over heels at that point. The other German on the call looked clearly ashamed, and everyone else stayed silent. Besides yelling at me in calls and in the open space, my manager hinted to me once (and I’m paraphrasing this to keep it anonymous) that something to take into consideration was how to dress for the office—only because I wasn’t wearing make-up or styling my outfits like other people on the team. I didn’t have a client-facing role, and I was wearing their apparel. I have showered every single day since childhood. And again, I didn’t speak up because I didn’t have the courage / felt lonely. Also, it was the first time I experienced confrontation/violence at work, and I was mostly confused and trying to figure out what to do while staying competent and performing well at my job. I had to go straight to therapy to recover from my manager’s management, which, in hindsight, I now realize was partly because she was very junior herself (as was her direct manager), and obviously incompetent to hold such a high-up position (constantly stressed, working until very late every day, etc.). When I was leaving, I also found out that one girl was on burnout leave, and another girl was also leaving because of the same manager. And mind you, they promoted this person within the org three times!!
