HelloFresh reviews

- Terrible communication (but what company cant be better in that?)

Horrible management, poor planning, do more with less people mentality. Disgusting work culture. So much pressure. Literally every other day one of us get a sick leave for burnouts. I had a horrible team lead and there was nothing I can do about my horrible inexperienced team lead. The company claims that their culture is egoless. You can speak up and challenge status quo. Everybody’s opinions matter etc… Reality is that the upper management only listens their sr managers or team leads. If you are not one of them you don’t matter . They take decisions without discussing with teams and then force people into changes. They don’t care if you leave or if you are unhappy. They are in the opinion that its easy to replace people and everyone wants to work for hellofresh. Ask about the turn over rate in paid marketing in your interview ( sea, seo, display, paid social, youtube, affiliate, offline marketing ) its not even 1.5 years. I have serious doubts about ability and experience of the team leads in paid marketing teams. And I don’t think its only me who questions that. I think people simply leave because they don’t want to work with team leads who earns more than themselves but doesn’t seem to be contributing more than anyone else or doesn’t even convince their team members that they are worthy of the positions they hold. You might be thinking 🤔 well how do they get team lead positions then??? Well its all about politics. Are you good at politics? Then this team is definitely for you! I’m sure you will get a team lead title in no time!! After you get it do not try to make your team happy. Always try to make upper management happy. That’s all that matters. Basically don’t work much upper management will bite whatever you say and your direct reports have no place to make their voices heard anyway.
