Pros

I am trying to think of some pros but I just can't find one......

Cons

It's a place of strange management... The spending with the management benefits and bonuses is crazy: free meals to the most expensive restaurants, always they use the most expensive hotels for business trips, always the most expensive and state of the art gadgets, OK this should be perfectly normal however if you take into consideration that this is a sales company and for years they don't have any profit this lavishing spendings just don't make any sense whatsoever...... Just to give you a stupid example the cars rented for all the managers in that firm do not have the company logo on them...... Being a sales company you might think that having the logo printed on your cars would be a smart thing to do, not here....... By the way the marketing department practically doesn't exist, again a strange thing for someone in sales business however much of the things in this company doesn't make or will make any sense.... Low salaries... No bonuses or salary increase due to lack of profit....... No opportunity to grow except for the backscratchers, for them it's totally different...... Lower employees and the ones with deadlines are treated like slaves literally... So if you don't have any other opportunity then probably you don't get to chose however if you get to chose then I wouldn't recommend this place not at all.....

Self centered managment

Pros

The pay is stuck in the 1990's but you can practicly do what you want because there's no real oversight from managment about what you do as a individual. All that matters is that the group in which you belong does well or they cut people at random, less popular people first. Even if they work the hardest.

Cons

Managment is so self centered... They constantly send general mails arround to tell everbody about how hard they work and how great they are. They are the "leaders" and not a day goes by that they won't post something about themselves on the intranet. To bad they never mention anything about the people who do the work without leadership. They don't matter and they actually do nothing. Since new managment took over, the company fell asleep. I hope they don't destroy the company. The company grew thanks to teamwork and not by a few leaders who take all the credits but avoid the work. If fabory was a company that made money by making powerpoint presentations filled with BS, it would be the richest company on the planet.

Pros

It used to be a great company. Now it's a hellhole.

Cons

I worked for Fabory for over 11 years, the last year they decided that my department was not needed anymore and instead of telling me, they made my life a living nightmare trying to bully me out. Every 2 weeks my boss said: "you aren't needed anymore man, why don't you leave and keep the honor to yourself?" They did that because after 11 years they need to pay a severance pay and they have financial problems since I worked there and didn't wanted to pay me. The bullying went on so long and was so intensive that I nearly had a nervous breakdown. I was dying inside. All the years before I was a hero in the company, everything I did was great and I had the respect from a lot of collegues in sales. It used to be a great company but for the last 4 to 5 years, a new boss rose to the top who acts as a serious sociopath. Now I've got a new job and man... I'm a reborn person, I now work in a company where everybody talks to each other like a normal person, management is very respectfull and that offers normal wages that are 1/3 higher then at Fabory.
