"If you're not German, you don't advance in this company. Senior Management does not follow their own directives for cost saving. Much redundancy based on silo management."

"This experience was not the greatest, but not the worst either. I worked for Arvato for about a year and a half and saw that it was not a place where hard work or intelligence would get you very far. Honestly, I don't know what does get you ahead there other than sheer luck and good timing. There were very few people in management who seemed to have a decent idea of what was actually going on, but the rest of the bloated management team didn't seem to do much at all. Would I recommend it? No."
