Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Mutual respect and a sense of playfulness at the workplace- I always had the feeling we were working as a team towards a shared goal. At the same time there was always room for humor and being honest, that's not something to take for granted. I felt comfortable going to work and in what I was doing, that was thanks to my teammates and my lead, who gave me that security and support in the first place. Nothing worse than going into a hostile workplace, afraid to ask questions and make a mistake - I never once felt that. It sounds clicheè, but I did not feel like I was going to work a lot of the time, I genuinely enjoyed and believed in what we were doing. I sometimes sat at work thinking 'crazy that they're trusting us kids to decide this and to do that' - but it only spoke to the trust and freedom given to us, and the fact that weren't asked to be perfect and to stop being human. (also for the record, nobody is/was an actual kid, maybe just at heart <3 :) )

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I think the general idea is always you gotta say something (anything) negative / give suggestions in order for a review to sound legit. But my only suggestion is to keep shooting for the stars and to stay human, like you always have :)

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Comfortable would be the best description! In the most positive sense, including the whole environment of course, but it was mostly the feeling of being surrounded by kind people and knowing we were there for each other :) In my team we'd celebrate success, we'd compliment each other and we showed appreciation - I could feel this in other teams as well.

Image

To be 100% fair, I don't know as I never monitored it closely. People who know Tractive mostly had positive reactions, so I'm going to go off of that! (what I know is that certain collabs definitely helped boosting Tractive's image, which led to even my grandma knowing them). All in all, I think they're doing a great job representing the company :) (ESPECIALLY the person in charge of their LinkedIn!)

Work-Life-Balance

I was wary when we introduced the 4 day work week, it took some time to adjust, but it gave us an insane amount of freedom. Life happens outside of work as well- appointments, emergencies, etc. and it was way easier to coordinate all of that having an extra day off. It wasn't just that though, there was always the opportunity to ask to leave work a bit earlier/come in later or even take a day off on a whim- this is definitely not the norm everywhere else.
I also never felt pressure to work outside of work hours. I would do it, but it was because I enjoyed it / wanted to. I think sometimes this sounds like a red flag, but for some work can be a hobby, it doesn't mean there is no work life balance. Essentially, this only means you can balance both for extended periods of time while not neglecting self care - I was able to do that :)

Karriere/Weiterbildung

For me personally, career growth is not equal to promotion and climbing the corporate ladder as high as possible. What mattered to me was personal growth within my career, and I was allowed and encouraged to do that. This might scream red flag to some, but this does not mean there are no opportunities- it means people are complex and what goes for some doesn't work for others. Not every path can be laid out beforehand and not everyone can or wants to be a team lead.
Matter of the fact is people got promoted internally (a ton actually), they got given new roles and tasks that they asked for.
I think when it comes to this point specifically, there is a sense of self awareness and also initiative that is missing when people talk negatively about it. It is simply impossible to constantly give everyone the role and tasks that they ask for or think they should have - what is possible and what was (and I assume still is) practiced at Tractive is that people are given the chance to actively take part in the decisions of where their career and growth are headed. Not everyone will take that chance, and for some a certain role may only be a fit for some time. That is OK and natural.

Gehalt/Benefits

Here is the hard truth: no matter what anyone answers here, it will never reflect individual experiences.
As for salary, I was happy with what I got, I always thought it was fair. For others in different roles this might look different (in either direction). Depending on somebody's situation/education/experience, salary will be a higher or lower priority, and negotiations will look different as well. There are definitely opportunities to talk about it! This is not unique to Tractive though.
As for other benefits - taking a look at other employers, Tractive was definitely keeping up, if not going above. The climate ticket and the health benefit are a huge thing! Again, wouldn't benefit everyone, but it benefits a lot of people!

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

The will and the effort was always there. Of course not always clear for everyone to see, but personally I did see and know about it. Could they do more? Probably, but that is true for everyone- individual people and even bigger companies. I think it's easy to point fingers sometimes, but in this case I truly believe Tractive is doing its best.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

I never noticed any differences in how older/younger colleagues were treated. Yes, Tractive is a younger company, but there are also older colleagues and it gave us great learning opportunities :)

Vorgesetztenverhalten

One thing high on the list of things I miss is my lead. We were seeing eye to eye, there was nothing but respect and support, even when I was leaving. I made mistakes over the years, forgot things and miscommunicated- but it was not an issue, we were growing together and I was given the chance to do and be what I was good at. My lead also actively asked for feedback and incoorporated it, no questions asked. This level of comfort meant we could also discuss personal matters and lean on each other without it bleeding into work related tasks.
As for the company as a whole, I knew I could go talk to management/leadership whenever I wanted/needed to, the door was always open. I was never disrespected or brushed aside, something that is also not the norm in a company (sadly).

Arbeitsbedingungen

I had everything I needed to do my job as best as I could and could've always asked for more :) (especially also a free sugar rush and a borderline coffee addiction, for which I blame only myself though)
I think a huge plus are the free parking spots - this always seems to get forgotten, but it is NOT the norm. Of course the things you need FOR work are important, but first you gotta get there.

Kommunikation

Within my team and with my lead the communication was great. I knew that no matter to whom I reached out to, I would get support. If there were things that did not go well, I was allowed and encouraged to say it and we'd fix it together. We could also say difficult things without taking it personal, there was no tabu and plenty of room to actually speak about it (meetings, regular feedback etc.).
As for the company as a whole, it was of course so and so - but overall most of the employees were easy to talk to and work with, respectful and kind communication was encouraged.
Answering things like this is tricky because everyone communicates differently- it doesn't make them 'bad' communicators, maybe just difficult for some to understand and adapt to. With time I always found a common ground- sometimes it also helps to reflect your own communication style.

Gleichberechtigung

In my opinion, yes. It was always clear that equality should be and is practiced, it just doesn't always look the same to everyone. For some equality means everyone can do anything, for some it means every exception made out of good will should apply to them as well, for some it means everyone is given the same respect and the tools that they personally need. For me the latter is true and I know that Tractive is living that. What it comes down to is the question of whether I am actually being treated unfairly / disrespected because of who I am (be it gender, nationality, disabilities or sexuality,...) OR am I pissed because somebody else was given something to succeed that I personally didn't need but think I am entitled to? Depending on how this is answered, the answer here would change drastically but might not be a reflection of reality.

Interessante Aufgaben

Definitely, yes. My tasks changed over the years, and I was always given the chance to voice my opinion about it and actively decide together with my lead and the team. I did things I didn't think I could and was allowed to grow with the tasks, rather than being perfect at them at the first attempt. What made it fun was also working with and helping others in my team with their tasks- it gave us all a chance to see what the other person was doing and brought us closer together because we'd know the others valued our opinion/support :)

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Hier fühlt man sich als Mitarbeiter wertgeschätzt. Ebenso liegt es dem Management sowie den Leads am Herzen die Mitarbeiter zu fördern und ihnen Platz für Wachstum zu geben. Nebenbei machen tolle Benefits wie die 4 Tage Woche oder Company Events sowie weitere tolle Angebote Tractive zu einem sehr attraktiven Arbeitgeber.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Angenehme Arbeitsatmosphäre in welcher man gerne arbeitet. Team Leads, VP's sowie auch das Management zeigen sich mehr als Dankbar durch tolle Benefits.

Work-Life-Balance

Durch die 4 Tage Woche ist es möglich wirklich abzuschalten und auch kleinere Reisen über das "längere" Wochenende sind möglich. So kann man frisch erholt in den Montag starten.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Durch regelmäßige Feedback Gespräche werden regelmäßig Zukunftsperspektiven und künftige Projekte, Aufgabenbereiche etc. besprochen. Auch hier kann man offen mit dem Team Lead über Entwicklungswünsche sprechen.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

Die Firma legt sehr viel Wert darauf so umweltfreundlich als möglich zu agieren.

Die Zusammenarbeit mit meinem Team Lead und dem Management sind toll. Man kann viel lernen und es werden auch eingebrachte Ideen beachtet bzw. nach der persönlichen Meinung gefragt. Dieses Zeichen der Wertschätzung zeichnet Tractive als tollen Arbeitgeber aus.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The work atmosphere is as good as it can possibly be. You feel very comfortable when entering the building, as a lot of importance is placed on a clean and inviting environment. Every employee has a height-adjustable desk. In addition, there is the option to relocate your workspace to the terrace or a chill-out area.

Work-Life-Balance

With the flexible working hours and the 4-day week, I not only enjoy working much more overall, but I also have more free time.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Vorgesetztenverhalten

The behavior of the supervisors is consistently professional and very responsible. Care is taken to ensure that employees can develop both personally and professionally. Of course, there are exceptions, but at Tractive, exceptions definitely prove the rule!

Kommunikation

Not only within the team, but also across teams and from management, communication is very open. Here too, you can feel the flat hierarchies and that management values communicating honestly and on an equal footing with all employees, whether they are leaders or not.

Gleichberechtigung

I have never felt or heard that anyone was treated unfairly. On the contrary, equal treatment and fairness are highly valued, and when the leadership sets a good example, it is reflected throughout the entire workforce.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

I truly value the feedback culture at Tractive. Not knowing where I stand with certain tasks and responsibilities is the worst feeling for me. That’s why I’m grateful that feedback is actively encouraged and embraced in both directions— not by restraining creativity, but by supporting it!

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The moment you step into the office, you can instantly feel the dynamic, open, and relaxed working atmosphere—enhanced by many creative working spaces besides your fixed desk.

Work-Life-Balance

What I truly appreciate about Tractive is its strong focus on employees' work-life balance. The four-day workweek is a fantastic benefit, but the flexibility in working hours and location also makes it much easier to balance work and personal life!

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Kommunikation

Communication here is very open and digital, as many people work from different locations. However, when you're in the office, it's easy to strike up a conversation since everyone is eager to connect and get to know each other.

Gesundheitsbudget, Öffi-Budget, ein eigener kleiner Wald, der zum Büro gehört. Natürlich geht immer mehr, aber ich finde, das machen sie sehr gut.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Wir haben einfach nicht so viele ältere Kollegen..

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Ich bin sehr zufrieden mit meinem Vorgesetzten und konnte schon viel mitnehmen.

Kommunikation

Es gibt monatlich firmenweite Meetings, in denen Updates geteilt haben. Ansonsten werden wichtige Infos über Slack geteilt. Die Kommunikation in meinem Team passt gut.

Interessante Aufgaben

Natürlich gibt es auch Tasks, die man nicht so gerne macht, aber grundsätzlich bin ich super happy mit meinem Aufgabenbereich und kann auch vieles proaktiv vorantreiben.
