Pros
Very Good Products. Understand Financially Sound. High level of passion of many employees who are pleased to have the opportunity to work in an industry that is aligned with their love of music.
Cons
Task driven, micromanaging Management Team driven by beliefs and management style of CEO. CEO, Uli Behringer, sets the tone with extreme micromanagement; task driven and very impatient; poor establishment of expectations and requirements with minimal directional communication; and conflicting behavior whereby praises an employee publicly and then employee released. Senior Management driven to similar management style (actually in our office their seems to be little respect for the individual with unprofessional behavior - swearing at employees should not be tolerated!) Very high level of change with zero communication on why and general direction of the company. Culture of fear. CEO visits then question is who will be gone. Everyone in very high panic. Very poor HR processes - poor appraisal system whereby many employees have had no performance reviews for years; unfair salary management with nil increases over years whereas company does well financially; no knowledge of how to attain promotions; no career planning; and little communication from senior management or direct manager.
