Gehalt

Meister pays (quite) well and I assume it will have to continue to do so because people don't come for the culture anymore. However, there has been an ongoing rumour that people who started before the investment still earn significantly less than their peers who joined after.
In terms of salary increases due to the collective agreement, Meister has not communicated as regularly and as clearly as me and several colleagues hoped for based on Meister’s general goal of transparency, so this feels a bit... unexpected?

Meister improved the salaries a bit this year, especially after the lay-offs. But you have to be clear that other companies pay way better mostly. A friend of mine left the company this year and gets more as an intermediate than many of the seniors at Meister. I've heard from a few seniors, that they had counter offers with 15-20k more a year when they joined Meister. So you see, money is not everything :)
Still I have to mention that Meister pays for your public transport in Vienna or they pay the equivalent amount to the austrian railway card.

Can't complain. Fair wages and benefits.

No stock options which is disappointing considering the company is happy to take on investment from external sources. Wages could also be better

While I think the salaries are a bit lower than market value, I think Meister makes up for it to some degree with their level of work flexibility.

Salary - Meister is paying less than the giants on the market. However, I'm working here because I appreciate the team and my role a lot, and many other benefits wouldn't be "paid" by corporations. We're going on a company trip for a week each year where we stay in a great hotel, develop ideas in the mornings, do sports in the afternoons and celebrate the night. I doubt that the benefits of other companies could be higher than the total package I'm getting at Meister.
