kununu Prüfprozess
14 Mitarbeiter:innen haben diesen Arbeitgeber mit durchschnittlich 3,6 Punkten auf einer Skala von 1 bis 5 bewertet.
Die Kollegen, die Internationalität und die Möglichkeit, wirklich an coolen Projekten zu arbeiten. Es wird einem nicht langweilig, und man kann viel lernen.
Manchmal könnten Prozesse klarer sein. Aber das ist in vielen Unternehmen so.
Transparenz weiter ausbauen und Prozesse optimieren. Ansonsten weitermachen, denn die Richtung stimmt.
Die meisten Kollegen sind super drauf, und das Arbeitsklima ist insgesamt angenehm. Kein übertriebener Konkurrenzdruck, sondern eher ein "Wir sitzen alle im gleichen Boot"-Feeling. Natürlich gibt es wie überall unterschiedliche Persönlichkeiten, aber im Großen und Ganzen passt es.
Das Unternehmen hat einen guten Ruf, auch wenn natürlich nicht alles perfekt ist. Intern gibt es manchmal Diskussionen über Entscheidungen, aber unterm Strich ist das Standing solide.
Ein Tech Unternehmen mit einer echt guten Mischung aus Innovation, Internationalität und Teamgeist. Die Arbeitsatmosphäre ist offen, unkompliziert und kollegial. Klar, es gibt stressige Phasen, aber das gehört in einem wachsenden Unternehmen dazu. Wer Bock hat, sich einzubringen, bekommt hier viele Chancen.
Läuft gut! Regelmäßige Updates, offene Gespräche und ehrliches Feedback. Natürlich gibt’s immer Luft nach oben, aber insgesamt wird hier transparent kommuniziert.
Gehalt ist fair. Es gibt ein paar nette Benefits, und wenn man Leistung bringt, wird das anerkannt.
Definitiv kein langweiliger Standard-Job. Man hat mit modernen Tools zu tun, kann an spannenden Projekten mitarbeiten und sich weiterentwickeln. Eigeninitiative wird geschätzt, und wer Verantwortung übernehmen will, kann das tun.
Danke für deine Bewertung! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass du dich bei ecosio wohlfühlst und deine Arbeit als interessant empfindest. Schön, dass du Teil des Teams bist!

Great place where ideas are valued. We build products that support all relevant user types, and feel that our work is helping customers achieve their goals.
The start-up paradox: sometimes communication flows are a bit hazy due to the start-up nature of the company. However this is generally a good thing, because there's freedom to tailor one's work for the betterment of the company in a way that the employee feels is right. In other words, the bottom-up approach is great, and sometimes communication becomes overcomplicated in some instances as a result.
Follow up on career paths and make it clear how employees can leverage their skills to certain career outcomes that are to their preference.
Dear employee,
Thank you for sharing your feedback and giving us a 5-star rating in many areas. We are happy to hear that you enjoy working at ecosio!
Best regards,
The ecosio team
there were a few very friendly people in office and HR who were very helpful and supportive during the whole hiring steps which make you feel more interested in getting into this company.
The company has a deeply unprofessional hiring process. They fire employees without providing any clear reason or prior discussions about expectations, leaving no opportunity for the employee to understand or meet their requirements. There is no communication about what they want, and they don’t give employees a chance to address potential concerns before being dismissed.
During my interview, I raised questions about the negative Kununu ratings. They assured me that those low ratings were not related to their team. However, this was misleading. I can confirm that the negative reviews are accurate, at least when it comes to the main messaging team. The work environment is extremely pressured from day one, and the lead lacks the ability to properly assess candidates before hiring, which can lead to significant damage to people’s lives.
Another issue I faced was that they used their internal problems as interview assignments, essentially asking candidates to help them solve their issues. This is completely unprofessional and inappropriate for an interview process. Although there were four interview stages, they failed to ask meaningful questions that would allow for a fair evaluation of the candidate's skills. Instead, they assigned a highly time-consuming coding challenge, which was poorly designed and further highlighted their lack of knowledge in assessing applicants. After hiring, they assess whether they can work with you over a few days, only to waste your time and terminate you shortly after.
During my interview, I wasn't challenged in a meaningful way. I was given two tasks: one was a time-consuming programming task that I completed perfectly, and the other was an internal issue that they later forgot to even discuss in the follow-up meeting.
The company shows no respect for your time or the impact that being hired and then fired can have on your life. They hire knowing full well they can fire you at any moment, with no regard for the personal and financial costs you may face as a result.
sending their team leads to other companies for a while and see if they can start working productively the first week on the new projects. or at least see how other companies and team leads are doing on boarding.
from the first day I could feel a lot of pressure and stress
I doubt if you can have a work-life balance there.
with the work load and the expectations they have, salaries do not match.
The worst possible behaviour. no explanation of what they want and after second day at work they start complaining about your work. They have no idea of what is their responsibility for onboarding a new comer.
too much pressure and stress. The first day I got some tasks to do regarding starting up the system. the team lead was coming to me in between meetings and asking me to do other stuff and pushing me to resolve a bug in order to assess my skills while I had no idea about the business of the company. Finaly after 2 weeks I could not finish the first day check list because team lead wanted me other things.
no communication. they say a word and want you to understand everything from the first day.
Hello,
We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts, though we’re sorry to hear that your experience with ecosio was so negative. We’d like to take a moment to address some of the concerns you raised in your review.
First, you mentioned that the hiring process was unprofessional. To clarify, our process consists of four interview stages, which is more comprehensive than what many companies offer. Additionally, our hiring process is transparent, fair, and openly listed on our career page for all candidates to review beforehand. Once hired, all employees start with a probation period, which is a legal requirement in all the countries where we operate and hire. This period is not just for us to assess your fit with the team, but also for you to raise any concerns. If you’re uncomfortable addressing them directly with your team lead, we have various channels available, including our HR team, Heads of Departments, or Managing Directors, who are always open to listening. While it’s unfortunate that your contract ended during this time, it’s important to note that such situations are rare.
Regarding your comment about using internal issues as interview assignments, we aim to provide tasks that are closely aligned with the actual day-to-day work you would encounter. This approach allows us to see how candidates might handle relevant challenges and also gives candidates a better understanding of the tasks they might face after starting with us. We're sorry if this felt inappropriate to you, but it was intended to be practical and insightful, not burdensome.
Lastly, we understand that you felt stressed and pressured. We strive to maintain a balanced environment, and we regret that this was not reflected in your experience. We genuinely hope that you find a work environment that better suits your expectations and wish you the best moving forward.
Kind regards,
The ecosio team

I like working here.
I heard dogs were banned from HQ office, I don’t support this decision
Only what I mentioned about salary and environmental impact.
My colleagues are always supportive and full of understanding , no one is pointing out at your mistakes. My ideas are heard and enjoy my everyday work.
Most of the time I find a good balance at work, and when I feel like it’s too much, I can speak to my team lead and ask for task rearrangement.
There is a room to grow professionally and learn new skills! Or course, big companies would have more career opportunities but they can’t compare people wise
We have some nice benefits but I feel like it could be more. Same is with salary - new hires are getting market salaries and some older employees aren’t.
We are helping through our business (EDI & e-invoicing) and we also are cautious about our travels and food choices! One star minus because we barely take part in any initiatives (but we do social actions like gifts for orphanages and social and environmental runs)
In my department everyone is super friendly and teamwork oriented. I love my team ❤️
I know a couple of older colleagues myself and looks like they fit in nicely. Even if they don’t understand my choice of emojis in slack
I’m happy with my direct team lead , also head of department is super nice. So all good in general! And what’s important to me is that if I have an issue, I can speak to head of my department directly, even if sometimes I need to mention it multiple times but I get it, they are always busy.
Remote is nice, and I can travel regularly to headquarter. Also I got my homeoffice equipped which is super.
I would say communication works very well inside each team. Sometimes I lack communication between departments on everyday tasks and projects but it starts to change now! And on company wide events I’m always happy to communicate with new people.
We have younger and older colleagues, very international team, and so on. I love it about my company! Sometimes I wish we had more flexibility in where I can work from and how long. Also, I heard dogs were banned from HQ office, I don’t support this decision
My tasks are always interesting to me, and I was able to develop my skills overtime at ecosio.
Dear employee,
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We’re really happy to hear that you’re enjoying your experience with ecosio. It’s always encouraging to see positive reviews like yours.
Regarding the areas you mentioned, we understand the desire for more flexibility. We strive to offer as much flexibility as possible through our flex time and work abroad policies, which we believe provide a great balance. However, we’ve had to set certain boundaries due to legal and tax considerations for employees, ensuring that we remain compliant while supporting a flexible work environment.
As for the policy regarding dogs at our main office, rest assured we love dogs! However, we also recognise that not everyone feels at ease around them, and following an internal poll we made the decision to change our policy in order to ensure all employees feel comfortable at our headquarters.
On the topic of salaries, we implemented salary bands to ensure consistency across the company. These bands are intended to rectify any discrepancies and ensure that employees with longer tenure are fairly compensated in line with market standards.
Thanks again for your review and for helping us to improve! We’re glad to have you on the team.
Kind regards
The ecosio team
Everything. The remote setup is working out greatly, as well as the flex time. We are in my opinion well-valued contributors and I feel that I'm part of a nice group in here. Keep investing in nice people and trusting everyone who is showing commitment.
Nothing to point out here.
Keep rocking! It's only getting better. Trust in the employees is crucial and you're doing it right.
I feel part of a great working space and nice team atmosphere in here. Never had the feeling that I really pertained to a group of individuals looking for the success of a company, and now here I am. Feels nice.
Everyone in my team has the same opinion here. The image we're sharing towards the outer world shows individual's happiness.
Remote working makes life easier. Also we have the possibility to go to the various offices if we want to.
We have various ways to keep improving and learning from everyone here. A learning platform has been set up and the company gives you the possibility to get further with your learning career if you want to.
I'm very happy with my current situation here. Always paid more than on time and there's even room for growing if you hit the targets and do your job properly.
The company has started to put in place some policies with regards to this point. Still room for improvement, but it's a hot topic now.
Top performers and nice people. Managing people are really nice professionals.
We're a very solid team and I've not had the chance yet to say bye to colleagues with whom I have a strong relationship so far, so I can't really evaluate this point... But from the experience I've seen from other colleagues in other teams, I shall say that it's very positive.
Couldn't be happier with my Team Lead.
Top conditions. Flex time and remote policy. The equipment we got is up to date and we have everything we need to get our job perfectly done.
There's always room for improvement in the communication field everywhere, but we are always up-to-date with what is going on in the entire company and specially in our teams, so it's overall a good situation that we have here.
I feel like the entire team is equally evaluated, independently on the individual's conditions.
Sales is a great task to do in here. Continuous learning, trust in the employees to overcome new challenges and all in all very interesting job.
Thank you for the positive feedback and your trust in ecosio! Keep rocking!
Cheers,
The ecosio team
There is the possibility to work 100% remote, whereby the company provides all sort of tools and also a dedicated workplace team to make the remote life as convenient as possible. Recently a hub in Valencia has opened, to allow the remote team members to from there to share a common office. Regular team retreats and company events help to stay connected with peers.
Very nice and diverse team
Due to the growth of the company it has high workload and everyone is pushy. Still there are some obvious underperfomers on board (and everyone can literally see their underperformance). Yet the management does only slow react and lets them keep their slow pace. In my team that regularly leads to discussions - in particular at afterworks. However, most recently the management has pushed for a more stringent evaluation approach, which in particualar some of the long term team members do not like. Some colleagues have quit as a consequence.
Some of the team members who are with the company since the beginning still bemoan an "ecosio-lifestyle" they are missing. The culture team should find a way to better align the "old" and "new" team members
very open culture
Generally very positive feedback from customers
Sometimes very high workloads. The good relationship with peers helps to overcome it. The management literally seems to work around the clock. If that is so good is another question
Dedicated budget for training and self-development is available
Very fair compensation, compared to my previous employer
The management is very keen to keep a fair share approach among the employees and to not overcompensate single contributors
Very nice colleagues and a great teamspirit
While the team is generally quite young, the few older team members are well integrated. Although they do not show up at company events that often
Generally very fair and professional, although one can clearly tell some seniority gaps with some of the heads
My superior is very helpful and has an open ear. Sometimes the workload is very intense
Almost no day like the other and everyday new challenges arise, which I prefer
Dear employee,
We appreciate your feedback and kind words!
Sending positive vibes,
The ecosio team
Am Anfang fand ich den Umgang gut, man hatte irgendwie das gefühl, man wurde geschätzt. Zu letzt fand ich nichts mehr gut, die wertschätzung hat meiner meinung nach extrem nachgelassen, das verhalten der gründer taten ihr übriges dazu.
Gute Mitarbeiter verlassen keine Unternehmen, sondern ihre Chefs. Darüber sollte man sich mal Gedanken machen. Meiner Meinung nach gibt es auch viel zu viele Blender in der Firma selbst, die leider (zum Teil) eine zu hohe Position (meist mit Glück) erreicht haben (meine Meinung).
Auch als Arbeitgeber trägt man seinen Mitarbeitern gegenüber Verantwortung. Das wird hier meiner Meinung nach oft vergessen. Du musst damit rechnen, jederzeit ersetzt zu werden und dass das, was man dir heute sagt, morgen schon nicht mehr stimmen muss.
micromanagement, micromanagement, micromanagement. je nach lead wird man bis ins kleinste detail kontrolliert.
marketing leistet gute arbeit - sie stehen meiner meinung nach besser da als sie sind.
bildungskarrenz oder sabbatical wird für gewöhnlich genehmigt.
bewegt sich je nach stelle eher im unteren bereich.
in meinen anfängen wurde auf nachhaltigkeit wert gelegt. seit mitarbeiter für 1-2 tage zu skievents oder nach mallorca geflogen werden, hat das meiner meinung nach nichts mehr mit umwelt oder sozialbewusstsein zu tun.
aufgrund des 100% remotes ist es schwierig, eine gute "connection" zu anderen kollegen aufzubauen. auch das einschätzen, wie ehrlich jemand ist oder ob man jemandem vertrauen kann, ist meiner meinung nach eher unmöglich.
ältere kollegen durfte ich in meiner zeit nur kurz kennen lernen, bevor diese sich selbst eine neue herausforderung gesucht haben.
nachdem mehrere mitarbeiter in den letzten monaten von heut auf morgen gekündigt wurden, ist in meinen augen das vorgesetztenverhalten extrem gesunken. einem kollegen mit familie wurde kurz vor ablauf der probezeit gekündigt, einem anderen kollegen kurz nach einem trauerfall in der familie. feingefühl sieht meiner meinung nach anders aus.
waren vor etwa 2-3 jahren bedeutend besser wie heute.
fand ich nicht gut. auf fragen werden zum teil nicht eingegangen, es wird nur oberflächlich geantwortet. viel wird meiner meinung nach verschwiegen. oder dir wird etwas anderes erzählt, wie nachher passiert.
Hallo,
Danke für dein Feedback, und es tut uns leid zu hören, dass deine Erfahrungen nicht zufriedenstellend waren.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Das ecosio-Team
Die Möglichkeit zu 100% im Homeoffice zu arbeiten. Firmen-Events. Ownership: Verantwortung ab dem ersten Tag.
Mitarbeiter müssen stets damit rechnen, gefeuert zu werden. In den letzten Monaten wurde in regelmäßigen Abständen gekündigt, Mitarbeiter werden nach sechsmonatiger Probezeit nicht übernommen. Gefeuert wird von heute auf morgen ohne auf die Betroffenen einzugehen, man wird sofort von allen Kanälen deaktiviert, noch während man im Meeting ist, in dem die Kündigung mitgeteilt wird.
Gegenüber Mitarbeitern (die Menschen mit Familien sind und Verantwortung tragen) ehrlich kommunizieren und sie nicht schlagartig und ungewarnt nach 6 Monaten kündigen. Damit der sozialen Verantwortung als Arbeitgeber den Menschen gegenüber nachkommen.
Ok
Gut
Ok
Da wird für 1-2 Tage geflogen was das Zeug hält. Das gilt für Management und Mitarbeiter, die in ganz Europa verteilt arbeiten.
Ungeduld mit neuen Mitarbeitern. Mobbing, indem Aufgaben entzogen werden. Diskreditierung: gezieltes Untergraben von Personen durch öffentlichen Vertrauensentzug im Team.
Man erlebt, "hidden Agendas" bekommt erzählt, dass alles gut sei, nur um dann zu erfahren dass man gegangen wird.
Ok
Schlecht! In Meetings und 1-on-1s Freundlichkeit; Im Ergebnis die unangemeldete Kündigung
Ok
Fließbandarbeit von Kollegen, die die Arbeit dann nicht einmal wertschätzen.
Hallo,

hard to tell. probably the team members.
- missing benefits
- high workload
- overboarding micromanagement
- missing carrier development with fisible goals
don't know where to start. I hope you read the review carefully and act accordingly.
the atmosphere is filled with too much work on a high pressure level on the shoulders of too less employees. ecosio seemingly wants to play in the field of the big service providers and sees itself as the tech leader. But thats not the case.
There is also a common culture for micromanagement and criticism for trivial points, that absolutely destroys working moral and kills joy.
marketing is doing a great job. From the outside everything looks shiny and nice. from the inside it is so and so.
Alltough ecosio is a former start up it often feels like a company with a culture from the 80s
hard topic. so far it was quite good. felxibel time, remote work and the possibility to used overtime compensation was there. But that has been shut off lately. Now support shifts, too many meetings and the very demnding workload basically makes it impossible to really balance things. Especially if you have kids.
there is no real learning culture. Good luck asking for a certification, a seminar or a training course from the outside. It is not gonna happen, eventhough it might have been promised during the hiring process
Internal trainings cover thebasics and necessities to due your job. a real personal growth and carrier development seems to be impossible.
For me it feels like a dead end job
mediocre salary no real benefits.
company events and parties are seen as benefits. Nothing more to say about that
not a thing at all
depending on the team. But to my experience it was ok'ish to good.
There are quite a lot of Team members, interested in working together
there are no senior collegues. the team is very young
a lot of micromanagement and a disinterest to makes things easier at many points.
Teamleads are seemigly under a high pressure tohold their team members in the line. It is more likely to get micromanaged for trivial things than getting an honest recognition for good work
Hardware is up to date. Software and tooling is heavily worked on. Alltough the wheel is reinvented instead of using already existing tools sometimes
there are some monthly townhall or all-in meetings called Jour-Fix, where stategies and goals are being shared, but you can not shake off the feeling, that not everything is being said.
Besides that, the company heavily relies on communicating over Slack, which sounds good at first, but slack channels are overused with a lot of unneccessary info and theimportant stuff can be missed very easily
can't really say anything about that. Never seen anyone getting mistreated due to gender orientation or religion. But that doesn't mean that it is not happening. It has just not happened to my knoweldge. Allthough there is no word of equality in the companies policies
depending on your role and preference. EDI is still EDI it is a try topic to be honest, but can be very interesting if you find the right environment. At ecosio, unfortunately not so much, alltough management claims it to be otherwise
Dear Employee,
We are sorry to hear that your experience has been negative. We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention and want to address them promptly.
To that end, we will organise an anonymous poll in the near future, giving you and your colleagues an opportunity to voice your concerns and provide us with more information. This will allow us to better understand the issues and take the necessary actions to improve the situation.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to address these concerns.
Best regards,
The ecosio team
From an employee's perspective, ecosio's past. I just can't find anything special anymore job-wise that you would not find better somewhere else, but also without the bad things.
But I will say: the colleagues you will meet and the friendships you will gain at ecosio are exceptional.
Read my review.
This company was built on people who were constantly ready to change, to work hard, to learn and to get better – it was a tech start-up, that was thrilling, fun, and rewarding to work for. Listen to your people again, change with your people and appreciate them for their effort.
And please do not call disappointing employees with faulty promises and worse contracts “change”. Absolutely nobody has to happily go along with that type of change.
Given, ecosio wants to be a good workplace for employees again of course. But if the goal for now is just fast growth on paper in a short time no matter what, just keep going!
Presently, every employee had to accept a severe change in contracts (into a so-called all-in contract, that includes all overtime). If you are not willing to change, you will lose your right to do flexible hours.
This, among other recent developments, is a huge problem because this company relies on their employees doing constant overtime. The results are major setbacks for people's salaries, and, in my opinion even worse, a general sense of not being appreciated anymore on a personal level.
You can get a feeling of what is happening regarding working atmosphere by reading some recent reviews on kununu.
I am giving one star because by executing this the way they did, the company apparently wasn't concerned about the working atmosphere in any way, or they boldly anticipated some people to get frustrated and just did it anyway.
Maintaining a healthy work-life-balance is very hard due to a constant, very heavy workload for just too few people. They could reduce that by finally hiring more people, or just hearing the struggles of operative employees and making changes that will improve work efficiency – but that is, in my perspective, a promise broken over and over again.
I am giving one star because this company just constantly throws huge work-loads at everyone, but now takes away the financial appreciation off those who actually like to work hard (or otherwise taking away the possibility of a flexible work-life for those who would need it).
Doesn't really seem to be on the agenda.
Creating a team-spirit based on going through extreme stressful and hour-heavy projects over and over again might lead to a lot of sympathy for each other, and to winning very nice friends.
But I am still giving one star here because, in my opinion and experience, there are healthier and longer-lasting ways to build up strong teams.
The High-Level Management (whether intentional or not), in my opinion, takes advantage of the well-hearted people, who have a hard time saying no. Promises of reduced work-load, career development, new colleagues or fair payment are constantly made, but also constantly broken with just more and more work. I just cannot see it as anything else but a strategy to use people as long as possible instead of giving them a chance to develop.
Employee-feedback is encouraged, but not respected.
I probably would not personally blame the individuals among the high-level managers, as most of them are kind and nice people off work. But still, their decisions, their management style as well as their intentions got this organization where it is now: maybe for now a successful company, but not a good tech-place to work anymore from an employee-perspective. This is why I am giving one star.
You will get a capable computer. The office in Vienna is very nice, if you want to go, but international remote work is 100% possible.
Over the course of the last two years, the transparency, consistency, and reliability provided by the top-level management got questionable. It turned to be rather top-down, very hierarchical, as well as constricting. Directions, and reasons for certain decisions, were often changed or unclear. Promises regarding strategic decisions (i.e., hiring new people) were made and broken.
I am giving one star because management delivers a strong impression of transparency, flat hierarchy as well as reliability, but in the long term you cannot really rely on what is told.
This is a very sensitive and individual topic – I can't judge what a fair salary is for the individual person and how far one wants to go to achieve it in negotiations.
I am giving two stars because of the new contracts. It just seems to be such a ridiculous decision for a company this size to introduce all-in contracts for just everyone, as there are just so many like-wise companies out there that will not have those for operative employees.
This sort of contract was originally designed for high-level management to ease the bureaucratic effort for their constant overtime – financially well compensated, of course. Using this for the regular employee (even for people that just started to work with no real power for negotiating a higher salary) seems, at least to me, to be somewhat between a joke and actual exploitation.
There is, at least what I saw, absolutely no discrimination in any form. On a personal level, everyone is very nice and polite.
EDI can be a very broad and interesting field of work!
Dear employee,
We are sorry to hear about your negative experience. We are continuously improving our internal processes and value any feedback.
