What works well?

The work is interesting and very flexible. Innovative and creative ideas are always welcomed and implemented when appropriate. The management and the HR department are benevolent and attentive to the employees. The work climate is very pleasant, based on mutual aid and emulation. The flexible working conditions are a real plus (flexible hours, teleworking, etc.).

What could be improved?

No room for improvement. The company really cares about the needs and demands of its employees.

What works well?

Excellent production activities (very first market oriented) Diversity of measures and clients The part of the training offered to the employees

What could be improved?

The very vertical and political management Inflexible human resources management with little consideration for employees. High turnover. Average time 3 years which explains the very high recruitment rate A management far removed from the realities of the field Very pressurizing and unrealistic specifications

Employer comment

27 February 2023

Dear employee, I invite you to contact me so that we can discuss the figures that you articulate regarding turnover and the past years of employees within our structure; we obviously do not have the same information. We strive to maintain a close management relationship with our teams in order to support them as best as possible and understand their problems. To this end, we involve our employees in defining the Cooperative's strategic objectives and organize dialogue workshops twice a year to discuss questions, issues and difficulties. I invite you to participate if you feel that management is too detached from the field to discuss these issues together.

What works well?

I can't give feedback on this, I haven't worked on it.

What could be improved?

The recruitment process is unclear and seems very elitist. Indeed, it would be wise to broaden the degree requirements. Do you need a master's degree to be a counselor? My personal answer: NO. It seems to me that this company is looking for theorists and not pragmatic people from the field. Moreover, the same offer reappears every 3 months, which seems paradoxical. A company that wishes to accompany people towards a clear professional project, is not itself capable of ensuring the retention of its employees? Thank you for your answer.

What works well?

The atmosphere among employees. The teams are friendly and welcoming within themselves.

What could be improved?

Management: you are sold a horizontal management, modern conditions, a funny company seminar... when in reality management is vertiginously vertical, everyone in his place and you are made to understand it very well. Employees who bring innovative ideas do not stay long. The "talking shop" where everyone can freely ask questions is a sham. The salaries are lower than those of other suppliers and there are no opportunities for internal development.

Salary is a reason for not recruiting despite good profile

What works well?

I was lucky enough to receive a rejection email following my application.

What could be improved?

I regret and deplore that this employer "forces" future and potential employees to mention on their own the salary expectations they have. If this information is not mentioned, they do not even bother to answer. It is up to the employer to specify the salary scale in all transparency. This is a roundabout way to evaluate salaries downwards. Too bad... (I received an email explaining that I did not fit the profile. The unacknowledged reason is the salary requested).

Employer comment

We would like candidates to indicate their salary expectations, not to make it a selection criterion as you indicate, but rather to evaluate whether the difference in salary could be a blocking point for the candidate, or even a demotivating factor. Indeed, being a subsidized company, we cannot charge the same salaries as in the private sector, which is why this point is important to us.

What works well?

Excellent collegiality between the teams. Organization of seminars or inter-employee events.

What could be improved?

Innovative and modern company that offers employees opportunities to join projects, work groups or ideas for improvement. The management is close to the employees and listens to their needs. There is no fear or anxiety about expressing oneself on problems encountered.

What works well?

Recruitment is not their strong point. They should at least take the time to respond.

What could be improved?

Doesn't bother to answer, even if it's negative. At least an automatic response would be appreciated.

Your return is very surprising, we attach great importance to answering each candidate. Sometimes it can take several weeks depending on the position. I invite you to send us an email to: recrutement@demarche.ch so that we can deal with your dissatisfaction.
