Decathlon reviews

- Extremely poor benefit package. No 13th month bonus (AWS) and even if there's profit sharing, it is usually capped at 1 month of your salary. - Some of the TEAM leaders are awfully biased and unprofessional. Without fail, you'll see them gossiping every morning and discussing employees, or any issues in the firm. It's quite a toxic behaviour. - Some leaders are extremely condescending, and will talk down to you. They tend to treat the non-locals better than the locals, even if they don't live up to their expectations/requirements. - Some (minority) team leaders are extremely toxic and unprofessional. You do NOT want to work for them. They're not supportive, they have very frequent mood swings, they don't treat you with respect, they talk down to you & they don't walk the talk, They're essentially unfit and unbecoming of a leader. - The firm harps on human capital but their actions do NOT prioritise human capital. They insist on hiring internally for HR roles but they fail to realise that HR is a specialisation that requirements foresight and long-term strategy. You can't simply have any Tom, Dlck or Harry to take on HR roles and expect to take good care of your employees. - Salary/Compensation packages are NOT competitive. At some point, you WILL have to take on Side Missions and if you don't, you're less likely to see an increment in your salary. Although they've revised the package recently, it doesn't seem like it is on par with the market.

Says that they appreciate your work but if they are not on good terms with you then there will be no progression or even salary increment. New positions are often being reserved for the person they have in mind. If someone applies for the role, they would go through the motion of interviewing and stuffs out of courtesy. Promotes people base on the company values that they have as well as how well they are liked rather than the quality of their work. New hires often getting higher pays as compared to old staff just because they can bring in "new ideas" when in actual fact any ideas coming from old staff would be shut down even though it might be exactly what the new hires come up with. Empty promises being thrown everywhere by people who do not have the power to make things happen. Underpaid but expected to do much more in order to have a chance of getting a pay increment. If you do not do anything more of your job scope, the chances of getting a pay increment is little to none even though you have hit or exceed the KPI set for the year itself. High staff turnover due to lack of appreciation from higher management. Often says they appreciate us but actions shoes otherwise.
