Pros

One of the reasons to work at AUTO1 is the salary and the fact you can learn some new things. - we had fruits, but not enough fruits for all of us

Cons

So the problems come even from the beginning. They hire everyone fast, they use you and they fire you even faster (especially for sales people). There isn't an HR person, so they don't know how to recruit. - management is bad - the general manager of the country doesn't care about the employees and the other managers are with no experience so of course they don't know how to react in many situations. - sometimes you feel they are waiting for you to make a mistake so they can blame you for everything - the atmosphere was not great, everybody stressed, negativity, no parties, they don't organize anything. - too many changes. I understand that this company is a startup, but you need to think very carefully before starting a business and not change everything every 2 months. - i felt like i was in the army, too strict with everything - no promotions

Pros

- You never cry alone in Auto1. There will always be some other employee to whom the company is doing bulling/mobbing/ignoring/laughing at, so you won't be alone.

Cons

- They laugh at employees or managers in front of everybody. - Bad atmosphere. - The workers are very fed up (understandable!), so you hear a lot of complaining all the time. - The communication is non-existing. They don't know what it means. - As they don't care at all for their employees, they won't even know if they have tasks to do or not. - They will not listen to any proposal to get better. No. They are already the best. - Employees have no place to eat and if they eat at their seats they will be screamed out because they should not take a break and talk there.

Dear former colleague, thanks for your feedback. We really appreciate honest feedback and take this seriously. Our company has been growing a lot in the past and we are aware of the fact that some things are not as perfect as we expect them to be. Thus, we are working on measures to improve information flow and communication by, for example, introducing employee newsletters that will be sent on a regular basis. At the same time, we also encourage employees to approach us or the management team directly in case there is a lack of information. I also offer you as well as all other (former/existing) colleagues to contact me directly (eva.kreibohm@auto1.com) to discuss ideas going forward. Kind regards, Eva (Head of HR)
