Pros
If we are being realistic, this is an excellent environment to be working for if you live in Greece. It’s def up to regular western EU standards, with numerous benefits and a salary which you can actually live with in Greece, where the cost of living is super disproportional to the salaries provided by most employers.
Excellent new initiatives include the parental program and setting a minimum wage for the entire company (one that is practically double the min wage in GR).
Most of the employees and management are very kind, and I personally have not experienced any toxic workplace feuds.
Cons
There have been soooo many core changes in the last 2 years. While the company is now heading to much better direction in my opinion, there was so much instability for a big period of time and it’s very normal for employees to feel insecure. You can’t just expect people to not be phased by 3 CEO changes in less than 2 years, and just “adapt”.
The approach of the new CEO to announce everything on his own, without using an HR person, is not optimal for a company of 250 people. That’s a personal opinion. Generally, not having an HR lead anymore does not align with a company of 250 people, it enhances the feeling of instability for many of us (even though certain employees in HR are excellent- they just can’t influence as much).
