Straumann Group Response

Hi there thank you for your review, even if it looks like that you were not satisfied working with us. From today's perspective, things might have changed a little bit. The workload was a topic as the success of Straumann led to enough work for everyone here. We are constantly analyzing what and how much is needed to reach our ambitious goals and following the findings we have to take action. It is in the nature of things that most strategies leave some people happy and some not. As you can see in the current situation it is never easy to find a way that serves everyone's needs and wishes. Does this really end up in a one-star-rating? What about your colleagues, the culture, salary, benefits, and the other things? Was all this really that bad? Let me share my view and be aware, this is subjective: For sure we are not perfect at all. For sure, we are all working hard. For sure there are never enough resources and budget. I want more for my work as well. But have you ever worked for an employer with a never-ending flow of budget and resources? I don't. I like having so many inspiring and talented colleagues around me and all over the globe. I like the open-minded and hands-on "can-do"-attitude so many people here have. I am happy to work for a company that helps people to feel better with our excellent products. The Player-Learner-Approach helps me to develop myself and to improve my work every day. But sometimes things need time. However, I want to thank you for being with us and your engagement for such a long time - as said, I hope, not everything was so bad as a 1-star-rating look like. For your next career step, I am wishing you all the best and that you find an employer who offers what we missed. If you want to share something with me do not hesitate to contact me at marcus.fischer@straumann.com, I am always happy to learn what we can do better in the future. Take care and stay healthy! Greetings from Basel Marcus --- Marcus Fischer Team Talent Acquisition Straumann Group

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.
