Pros

The social benefits in Germany are really good in comparison to other companies. There is something special about people you meet here. Very international. No German needed, unless the job description says so.

Cons

Still "old management school" to be seen especially in top managers and executive committees.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
