Grateful to Be Here: A Truly Thoughtful & Supportive Workplace at Material Plus - werkgeversreview Senior Associate bij Material

Remote work. Great people. Great clients.

Overall it's been a great experience

Some of your coworkers are nice. That’s genuinely the best I can offer.

Where to begin. RUN FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! Leadership here has perfected the art of making employees feel simultaneously over-monitored and completely unsupported. You will be asked to document your every move, log every task, and submit to being told in advance exactly how long each one should take. Not as a guideline. As a verdict. Disagree with the timeline? Too bad. Need more time because the work is actually complex? That’s a you problem. There is no autonomy here. None. You are treated less like a professional and more like a variable to be optimized. The implicit message, delivered daily, is that you cannot be trusted to manage your own time or make your own decisions despite being hired, presumably, for your judgment. The gossip culture is out of control and flows from the top down. Information that should stay private doesn’t, alliances shift constantly, and you’ll quickly learn that what someone says to your face and what they say behind your back are two very different things. Feedback is weaponized, not developmental. Expectations shift constantly and without notice, which conveniently means you’re always one step behind. Accountability is a one-way street: mistakes made above you disappear quietly; mistakes made below are treated as character flaws.
