Top company with unfortunately (still) too little climate protection

This works well in the company

Exciting projects in an international environment. Relaxed working atmosphere and a high value is placed on quality and collegiality.

This could be improved

Unfortunately, environmental awareness is virtually non-existent. - There is a lot and often unnecessary travel by airplane and the company has a catastrophic CO2 balance. Clear guidelines should be drawn up and much more modern technology (video conferencing) should be used. Especially in today's world, a global company like Varian must take a pioneering role in climate protection so that our children will also be left with an intact world. It would be very positive if management were to show more responsibility here and set clear signals in favour of active climate protection. Go Varian for climate protection!

This works well in the company

Great employees but management getting worse and worse. Employees no longer count. HR is no longer interested in people - it is only about costs, even if this is not necessary and the company earns very well. The mood's getting worse. Many MA are frustrated.

This could be improved

HR should focus on people again. Creates climate of fear and insecurity instead of worrying about a positive atmosphere.

Exciting projects, good working atmosphere

Always new, meaningful and exciting projects. The American "you" contributes to the good working atmosphere, the employees have a high value, no American "hire and fire".

Employer comment

I truly can not agree with this statement. Varian is a very good employer, I have never faced any "hire and fire" mentality.
