Terrible run company with a toxic and political work environment - Customer Solutions Specialist DIAKRIT Employee Review

Thanks for your feedback. We will try to address the different topics. On-boarding: We know that we can improve our on-boarding, however training and induction is a part of every employee’s start with Diakrit. For our production teams, we have several months of training. Any working tools needed to do your job is of course supposed to be ready for you on your first working day. If there has been a miss in the on-boarding process when you started, we apologize for this. Annual events/staff gatherings: There are events that we do on an annual basis like football tournament, celebration of Diakrit birthday. We also have bi-weekly after work ping pong. Due to different external circumstances, like fluctuations in the local markets, bigger annual parties have been postponed. We have recently started a Diakrit social club to make sure that more regular events are happening. We’re a small company so we need people to come together to make sure that fun events happen. Everyone is responsible for making sure that we have a nice working environment and fun together. Vacation: We expect our employees to request for vacation in advance to be able to plan the business delivery. If you feel that you are not given enough time to plan for your vacation, please address this with your Manager. Promotions & Management: We are a Swedish founded company with a strong presence on the Scandinavian markets, which makes it an advantage, and sometimes even a requirement to be able to speak a Scandinavian language. However, we have several Managerial positions that are not filled by Swedish people. As an example, our CFO is Australian. Our Group Financial Controller is Thai. Our Head of Digital Visualizations is also Thai...and so on. We never promote based on nationality, we only promote based on skills, experience and most importantly potential. Closing 1 floor/outsourcing: As communicated to all staff, we took the decision to move our staff up to two floors, especially with one of our business units moving out to a new location. It didn’t make business sense. As you mention, yes we outsource a small part of our production. We do this together with long-term reliable suppliers to ensure the highest quality. We do all the quality controlling in-house. We are proud of the quality we deliver and that we can meet our customers’ high standards. Kind regards, Diakrit
