Hi there Thank you for your review. Short and crisp. Happy to read it. I hope you share your thoughts with your boss also - I think she or he will be also happy to get your thoughts. Performance should be rewarded - looks like that works for you. Concerning your cons: Nobody likes admin stuff and I totally understand that it is annoying for you. Same here, same for me. Two things I'd like to add to this: 1. We are on a continuous improvement "journey" - we are working on that. Because of the fact that nobody likes that stuff (including those who have to execute it), it is our goal to spend as much of our time as possible to work on and with our products. Following our "Player-Learner" approach we try to optimize our work and behavior to perform better. 2. Unfortunately not every administrative effort comes from us. The majority of this stuff is because of legal and tax requirements, some of it is simply necessary to make things working. Sometimes (and that is coming out of my own experience) I don't understand why I have to deliver a report, fill a form or do some stupid stuff - the reason is simple: I do not have all information about it. In most cases, there is a good reason for it. And where this reason is missing - we should get rid of it. Follow our core behaviors: if you see something to be improved - make it yours, speak up and try to improve it with us. I cannot promise you that we will reduce every admin stuff but if we do not take action all together it will not work. Feel invited to join us on that mission. Good to have you with us. Don't stop rocking dentistry with us and thanks again for sharing your thoughts! Greetings from Basel Marcus --- Marcus Fischer Head of Global Talent Acquisition + Employer Branding

Excellent people, great company, great company culture

Cons

company growth comes with growing pains, company culture and money/time spent towards employee appreciation events seem to be waning.

Pros

The new management can’t follow their own new rules. They change everything to fit their own narrative. If they don’t like what you are wearing, they will turn around and change the policy to be what they want , an example is dress code change. The new continuous improvement excellence manager thinks sh is in charge of the entire manufacturing floor. Instead of going to the manufacturing management she feels it’s necessary to go directly to employees who work on the floor and speak to them about what she doesn’t like. She knows nothing about working in a machine shop and makes up safety rules that don’t even apply. It’s overkill. Psychological safety is at risk as she and the new site manager do not welcome your thoughts or concerns it’s their way or no way. This is definitely a different company now and the culture went from goo to toxic.

Cons

Culture, pay, and OT payments not paid when holiday or using your vacation time sick time.
