Pluspunten

Pay is good and in line with market rates

Minpunten

The company is big on Inclusion & Diversity, which is good. However, the push for I&D is also making minorities, especially blacks, targets of micro aggressions, overt racism, sabotage and tokenism. I have watched black women get belittled, demeaned, ignored, disrespected and bullied. There is resentment towards people of color in the workplace. Some workers perpetuate the stereotypes that they are dead weight, stupid and lazy. They are policed and critically judged as always lacking and inadequate. Sadly, some of the people of color who work here have bought into the same narrative and join in on bullying other people of color in an effort to secure their positions of favor. The pay is good, but anticipate to be treated like a second class citizen by some of your colleagues. You will be ignored. And generally dismissed and disrespected everyday. Also, the company says they trust their employees, but they really do not. They are forcing people to return to the office when COVID-19 numbers are spiking, employees are expressing concerns for their well-being and other companies are pushing back their return dates.

Pluspunten

I imagine this is very dependent on line management but I find my team and supervisors to be true champions of a high performing and highly compassionate work culture. I find my work challenging and rewarding, and have had opportunities to learn and grow and be rewarded and recognized for my output. No job is perfect but I’m truly happy to work here and at a time when AZ is truly rising like a rocket.

Minpunten

Like any massive global corporate entity, things can sometimes move slowly and it can be challenging to navigate a high number of constantly evolving priorities and initiatives. That being said, AZ is very clear about its north stars and values which makes it possible to prioritize work that has the most impact and alignment with the company’s ambition and business prerogatives. 60% office attendance policy is also a bit funny when oftentimes I am on Teams calls with colleagues sitting in other areas of the world.
