Pros

- Good colleagues with international backgrounds and diverse experiences (offices in multiple countries) - Remote working with flexible working times, and good work-life balance (excluding a couple of particular times of the year) - The company is scaling up with new technologies at a good rate, also getting a lot of talent from another well-known e-commerce apparel company, starting with the letter 'Z'.

Cons

- Ungenerous with available budget for raises and promotions (arrival of new CFO could have an effect?!). Second year in a row where no promotion and 0% salary adjustment (while performance was more than adequate to warrant an adjustment). All that despite the company growing at a very good rate vs industry average. - Implementations of the abovementioned new technologies have been difficult and have temporarily made work more difficult

Thank you for your open and nuanced feedback. We’re very pleased to hear that you view our international collaboration, flexible work model, and overall company direction positively. The diversity of our teams and the ability to work remotely and flexibly are aspects we’re particularly proud of. At the same time, we take your criticism seriously. We understand that salary adjustments and career progression are key concerns for our employees. In a rapidly evolving market environment, we must continuously develop our compensation model and internal processes. Your feedback helps us focus even more on these improvements. As you rightly mentioned, the introduction of new technologies has brought short-term challenges, but it is essential for staying innovative and competitive in the long run. We truly appreciate your patience and commitment during this period of change. If you’re open to it, we encourage you to have a direct conversation with your manager or P&O—your perspective matters to us. Kind regards, Daniela
