Software Engineer
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- Pretty cool people (Depending on the team)
- Office location
- Good work life balance.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- Pretty average product.
- Lot's of legacy codes and not willing to change.
- Not even people from adidas knows about the application but they knows about Strava.
- Not many people trusts the management, which creates an aura of distrust for everyone.
- Frequent meetings which can be a simple email. (You can literally sleep though some meetings and it would not matter.)
Verbesserungsvorschläge
- Do not sugarcoat things until the last moment.
- Make meaningful changes not because the sake of change itself but because it matters for the users.
- Have a clear career guidelines.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Pretty good atmosphere with the co-workers. Though It really depends on the team.
Kommunikation
The leadership says a lot of things that mean absolutely nothing. Everything is always super positive till the last moment.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Probably the highlight of Runtastic. Some teams are super friendly to work with and they respect your privacy as well.
Work-Life-Balance
Has a good separation between work and life. No one really bothers after 5 PM.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Again it depends on the team and the manager assigned for you. Some are really good and some you will never know even though its not a super big company.
Interessante Aufgaben
Most of the tasks are absolutely meaningless and boring. At the beginning it's exiting and later you realize that so many things are super complicated without any good reason.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Not many older people.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Annoying desk + chair combination that are not comfortable.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
The salary is bellow average.
Image
It's adidas when talking about the name itself, however not when matters.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
They have a career path however its not super clear and it's super hard to understand what path to follow for a promotion.
The education budget depends on the manager, Though you can spend some of your working time for learning which is positive.
Gleichberechtigung
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Arbeitgeber-Kommentar
Hey there, thank you for taking the time to write such an elaborate review. While we would have hoped for even more positive feedback, we greatly appreciate you going into detail, as it will help us improve our employee experience even further.
Indeed, the past months (or even years), have been filled with loads of information, that was sometimes tricky to communicate: you have may have noticed that we stepped up our game with almost weekly written Mgmt Updates (with the opportunity to raise follow-up questions on Slack), even more directly address critical topics during our All Hands and Management Q&As, and involve the entire leadership round in creating stronger bonds and higher trust across the company.
As for the career paths, 2022 and 2023 were indeed tricky due to a challenging economic situation we were facing. While 2023 is still a year of transition, we are confident that in 2024 we will be back to speed and will be able to offer more open positions and growth opportunities.
In the meantime, make sure to use your generous training budget and your Creators Time!
If you have any more feedback, you know where to find us.
