Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on Glassdoor. We take employee feedback very seriously and are committed to creating a better working environment for all our staff. It’s nice to read that you do value the flexible work models the AO Foundation offers its employees, and that you are satisfied with your salary. However, it seems that you are experiencing some profound issues with our management in general, and that the dynamic within your team appears to be toxic to you. We do take bullying very seriously, and I would really appreciate if you reached out to me to discuss the situation and assess what we can do to improve it. You can contact me anytime without directly referring to your review on this platform. Regards, Maja

No growth opportunities, no care for employees, no salary growth no level rise, you just stay where you are. Very old management with problems deeply rooted.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review on Glassdoor. We take employee feedback very seriously and are committed to creating a better working environment for all our staff. It’s nice to read that you value our purpose-driven mission, working with surgeons from all over the world, and that you enjoyed living in Davos. However, it seems that you didn’t feel looked after, and that you felt our organization offered no growth opportunities. This is quite contrary to my own experience. The AO Foundation encourages its employees to actively seek out new opportunities within the organization, as well as trying to bind its employees by offering a flexible working environment and ample opportunities for continuing education, both internally and externally. It seems you have moved on in the meantime, and I wish you all the best for the future. Of course, if you still wish to have a clarifying conversation, you can contact me anytime without directly referring to your review on this platform. Regards, Maja

Pros

International company with a good cause, but very biased due to the link of the financial donor (j&j).
