Medium sized company (just shy of 20 devs) plus a lot of sales and other roles. We don't have specific performance reviews, only 1on1s where it's more about identifying personal pain points and defining goals.
I think the lack of pressure is the reason why this company is the market leader in its niche, has very low fluctuation and a very high quality code base. I used to work in a sweat shop where we had to justify every 15 minutes spent (via time tracking) ... never. Again.
- softawre 9y agoDo you get yearly merit raises? Cost of living?
- sawmurai 9y agoCan't really tell as I have only been on the team for about a year now, but I have been told that you get raises if you ask for them and have enough arguments to justify a raise. What about costs of living? We're based in Zurich, CH.
- kzisme 9y agoNormally (maybe it isn't the norm) employers give a percentage raise annually or bi-annually for to accommodate for the "cost of living going up"
- occamrazor 9y agoInflation in Switzerland has been negative for the last two years. Most companies did mot apply any cost of living adjustment, but I know some that have reduced base salaries in accordance to inflation.
