After being in a long distance relationship for two years I‘m so excited that my girlfriend will finally move to Switzerland.

I want to give her the best possible arrival. So is there somone that went through the same process?

If yes,
What are things worth knowing?
How can I make life easier for her?
What might be possible challenges?
Are there any good expat communities or Filipino communities in Switzerland?

She‘s originally from the Philippines and lived in Singapore for 8 years. So she‘s used to be away from the family. Also, she built a nice career for herself, so nope, she doesn’t come for the money.

Everything regarding the visa is already taken care of. ☺️

I‘m curious to share experiences with people in similar situations. Thank you!!! 🙏🏻

I’ve been working for a company for several years now and have always received the highest ratings from my team. A new boss recently took over, and we just didn’t get along at all, so I quit. There were constant arguments, and I was on the verge of losing my mind.

Now I’ve received my employment reference (Arbeitszeugnis), and it’s not at all favorable, it’s written in a very mediocre way, even though I always performed at the highest level.

My evaluations from my previous supervisors were always impeccable, and now suddenly that’s no longer the case.

Is there anything I can do legally about this?

Update: Thank you for all your advice, I really appreciate it and it was very helpful.

Today I‘ve been in touch with HR directly and communicated a bit more aggressively. I‘ve told them my options and sent them my previous ratings.

They will send me a new updated version and I‘ll go through it with my Rechtsschutz. If it‘s still not to our liking, we‘ll take further action.

Awesome community and support here. 🥳
