Pros
- Roaming business is very interesting, international and multifaceted; - Meeting many experienced, professional, knowledgeable and pleasant individuals (obviously not in management positions) who work at Comfone; - Dealing with a really international customer base.
Cons
Typical Swiss company from every point of view: they tag themselves as "international" but the whole, extremely small, group of decision makers is 100% Swiss. Micromanagement is constantly implemented at all levels of the hierarchy and there is the tendency to merge private life and work. Employees almost never get awarded, promoted and recognized based on their skill set, professional achievements and hard work, but rather based on other "parameters": feeding the (low level) company gossip, pleasing the CEO at any cost, organizing apéros and avoiding to express any honest or direct opinion which might go against the mainstream. In many departments there is neither constructive approach to problem solving nor an effective team work, whereas "finger pointing" and "backstabbing" are the words which best describe the atmosphere.
