Good company but needs to work on the longstanding gatekeepers and appreciating current skilled engineers
- Noble mission of the company to help doctors cover more people and make health care more accessible
- Some very nice people and good culture overall, many managers and senior managers care about the employees
- Generally, no huge stress
- Some gatekeepers who actually lack technical knowledge and are very impolite block numerically good technical initiatives without a reason and very aggressively.
- Reinventing the wheel happens in multiple places in the code and community standards are sometimes not used.
- The offices and people in France have too much power in the company, which blocks initiatives and work coming from Germany.
- All the above makes it hard to show your skills and grow in the company...
- The company raised salaries to lure new hires and didn't raise the current employees to match that raise even partially.
- They are insisting on no remote work from outside Germany, except 2 weeks a year now, and there is a big push towards hybrid with 2 or 3 days per week in the office.
- There are some really toxic and unfair managers; they are a minority, but if you are unlucky and work with them, it is very bad...
