Gut zum Berufseinstieg, aber nicht lange verweilen - Project Manager Beurer Employee Review

There aren't any "Pros" to working at Beurer North America.

Toxic work environment: Surface-level politeness masks constant gossip and backstabbing. Trust across teams is minimal. Leadership sets a poor tone: Although a hybrid policy exists, it’s treated as a privilege that can be revoked based on subjective bias. Anti-remote culture: There’s a deep-seated belief that remote employees aren’t truly working, leading to micromanagement and passive-aggressive behavior. No respect for personal time: Taking a lunch away from your desk draws judgment. Doctor’s appointments and pre-planned vacations are treated as signs of disloyalty. Vacation shaming: Even with proper preparation, you're told you should’ve attended meetings while away and that your team isn’t good enough without you. Unprofessional conduct: Senior team members make inappropriate remarks without consequence. Offensive behavior is tolerated, not addressed. Lack of direct communication: Feedback is rarely offered transparently. Instead, people discuss others’ performance and job security behind closed doors. Micromanagement via messaging: Failure to respond quickly is met with snide, impatient follow-ups regardless of context. No psychological safety: The company lacks transparency, collaboration, and accountability—especially at the leadership level. Demoralizing culture: Despite a few perks, the workplace harms morale and well-being. Leaving was a relief, even without another job lined up.

Most of the employees are trustworthy, helpful, and easy to get along with.

Most upper management are bullies and toxic attitudes and behavior are tolerated (this is not the experience of the German locatioin, just Florida). I've been in the business world for a long time and heard and read things I couldn't believe - never in a professional setting. Nasty emails over the holidays and some people make it so unpleasant to ask questions people stay silent.
