Ventajas
I've worked for a lot of companies but Native Instruments truly rules. Native is continuously releasing excellent products that are equipped with top notch technology, developed with the latest tools the industry has to offer. Native is a well deserved market leader in all fields of their business as the products they release are exceeding the market expectations while continuously setting standards and trends before the customers even know themselves. Especially the executive board plays a tremendous part in the positive development of Native Instruments. With their expertise of classic management theories they are able to address all occurring problems without the necessity to listen to employees or industry professionals. They just know whats best and always take the right decision. Every management decision is explained by the CEO himself with full transparency and empathy. In my opinion he is a role model for every other c-level manager out there even beyond the music industry. Open doors policy is vividly lived and in the town hall meetings there are no taboos regarding questions that can be asked. I’m so proud to work for a company in which the executive board can immediately detect redundancies and is able to professionally undertake them. The executive hirings are also outstanding! New colleagues in the executive board don’t even need to know the market or have to be long with the company, they are just that professional to start their job from 0 to 101%.
Desventajas
As a lot of people don't understand how genius you are and don’t value at which great place they work - some voice very unfair accusations here on glassdoor. The executives and especially the HR department could do more efforts to silence these opinionators and make everyone understand how lucky they are. Just use the classical management strategies like fear or loud voices. Furthermore get rid of more redundancies especially people with other opinions than yours and sue all people that telling lies about Native.
