Pros
I joined HelloFresh three years ago, and at that time, it was a fantastic company to work for. There were perks like work from home , Learning budget , Home office setup but all of it is gone now.
Cons
- The company no longer offers a Learning & Development (L&D) budget, as this initiative has been discontinued. - There's no longer a home office budget. - The "flexible" hybrid work policy isn't as flexible as it claims. Management is increasingly pushing employees to come into the office five days a week. - Middle managers have even sent out threatening emails, warning employees of termination if they don't comply coming to office 3 days a week. - The work environment has become highly stressful, and it feels like management does not support employees seeking work-life balance. I have been personally told by my manager , this is not the company for work life balance. - Employees are frequently placed on Performance Improvement Plans (PIPs) and pressured into signing mutual termination agreements. I have been hearing this from colleagues , twitter and several sources . - The company always keep fighting with working council , constantly suing members of work council . - The company is constantly restructuring. Over my three years here, I've had seven different managers, each with varying expectations, making it nearly impossible to work toward a promotion. - The VP and C-level suite is clueless and they think suddenly bringing employees to office and micro managing them will boast revenue. - i would highly avoid conversions journey department, the leads and VPs are all highly toxic.
