Pros

There is no pros from joining Vie Finance A. E. P. E. Y. S. A Zweigniederlassung Deutschland, Berlin, Germany.

Cons

There are only cons from joining Vie Finance A. E. P. E. Y. S. A Zweigniederlassung Deutschland, Berlin, Germany. First of all, the company intentionally misleads both their employees and customers. It is a publicly known fact that in October 2022 the Hellenic Capital Market Commission in Athens, where the company's headquarters are based, penalized the company with fine 700000 EUR for infringement of provisions of the capital market legislation determined by the EU Regulations and the Greek law. Already during unpaid few-day training they don't inform trainees on their legal problems with the legislative compliance, and instruct trainees how to obey the law in order to trick customers towards payments to their investment platform Fortissio. Moreover, with many details, they inform trainees the penalities imposed on competitors, on allegedly misleading advertising by competitors. When it comes to factual arguments, either in the course of training or job, they claim they don't have obligations to inform anybody on anything. The hourly wage offered by the HR during the screening call before the start of training is differed than the actual wage (for example 12.5 EUR per hour, actual wage has been 12 EUR per hour). There is no benefits from the employment with this company. The HR department doesn't provide other reliable information before training. In the course of training and job, trainer/supervisor intentionally conflicts trainees/employees in order to force them to comply with the company's work culture of total submissiveness towards the management team. For example a trainer allows to make selfies, but doesn't allow to photograph the training materials which are too general to get the job's reality. I don't recommend anyone to join the company even for the training, because for a professional every minute spent with them is a waste of time, while for a beginner this a reduction of the intellectual and working potential.
