Pros
Don't let a few disgruntled former employees give out the wrong impression. Long standing employee that enjoys the team and the open direct communication, higher ups are very fair to their employees. Really stepped up to the plate in covid and worked with each employee as to what they are comfortable with in the work environment. Offered work from home, depending on circumstances. Initiated safe protocols in the office to protect the in house team as much as possible. On the road sales team could work from home and utilize zoom for visits with dealers and customers. Fast paced environment. Never boring. Open door policy, always. German management can be very direct in their management style. But find them to be very willing to work with you on any issues, personal or professional. Good amount of sick leave and vacation time. Comp days are offered to non management employees if needing to work after normal business hours, like attending a trade show on a weekend Not much micro-managing unless you fail to keep up with tasks, then management will step in and work with you.
Cons
Compensation is decent, management, though, tends to not up base pay for commission workers, instead depending on higher sales commissions to compensate for salary increases. Flat hierarchy
