It was good in the past.
I think you need to step back a bit and find or cultivate people who know how to run a company of this size, without sacrificing its values.
I think it's bad because of the recent measures and firings.
I think it's not as good as it used to be.
It was good but with the AI shift not believable anymore.
In my view it's chaotic without a strategy and plenty of shortsightedness and people who are at the bottom are I think paying the price for it. I don't see any accountability for bad decisions. I also think that the behavior of one particular founder should be improved.
I think the top down communication is very bad.
The decisions made in the salary conferences seem to be arbitrary.
Dear colleague,
Your feedback makes us concerned.
As an agile and holocratic digital agency we strive to improve continuously, with clear and transparent processes and methods, where you can address tensions to roles dedicated to employees health or within the system itself.
In our compensation system, Liipers take primary responsibility for their salary through self-evaluation, peer evaluations, and roles that are responsible for internal equity.
Decisions are not made top-down but by people in roles. All employees have a shared responsibility in the self-organization.
If I can be of any help in easing your tensions, please feel free to approach me.
Kind regards,
Nadja
When I first met Liip, it was love at first sight. Back then I was a client of Liip. The collaboration with the project team was awesome and the work done great. At that time, I said to myself that one day I’ll have to join this so inspiring and so empowering company.
I joined Liip a bit more than a year ago. And I am still in the honeymoon phase. Onboarding was very smooth – even if I joined a team spread across several locations. Within my team, I experienced the perfect balance between coaching and independence work on each project I take over or launch. Within my location (where no of my teammates are located), I felt very welcomed too, and very quickly super well integrated. Countless activities are organised by the Liipers to foster human interactions and a good mood.
I could go on for a while. As a wrap up, I would say that I love my colleagues, my projects, the culture and conditions. I feel lucky and grateful for this incredible work and life experience.
Liip provides the caring working environment I was looking for – where actions are taken to make me feel good at work. Sport courses, massages, breakfasts and end-of-the-day-cheerful-gatherings. I also like my standing desk very much. On a personal level, I feel listened to and valued. I have a voice within the company and can take initiatives.
Before joining Liip, I built myself a picture of the company. Now that I am Liiper myself, it’s exactly as I imagined. Transparency, equality, empowerment, flexibility, agility are really lived and nurtured. I also feel very connected to the values and principles of the company. Which is really important to me in order to deliver qualitative work.
I chose to work at a 100% rate even if I had – and still have – the possibility to lower my occupation rate. I like the freedom I have regarding working hours. I’m involved in an association (outside of Liip) and it has never been an issue to be off a couple of hours here and then during the day.
Dear colleague,
Thank you very much for the update and the kind review, and also for taking the time to explain things. We are pleased that you value and live the autonomy and the co-creation. 💚
Kind regards,
Nadja
Dear Liiper,
Thank you very much for your detailed and amazing feedback! We greatly appreciate your opinion.
We wish you all the best for the future and let me know if you think of anything we can improve on (as there are only pro's in your feedback ;))
Greetings Jenny, Employer Branding Specialist
Ich geniese viel Autonomie und Gestaltungsfreiheit. Wir haben die Möglichkeit, aktiv mitzugestalten, was jedoch auch Dialogbereitschaft und die Übernahme von Mitverantwortung erfordert.
Wer in der Selbstorganisation jedoch nur das „Mit“ möchte, ohne die Verantwortung und deren Konsequenzen zu übernehmen, könnte bei Liip nicht am richtigen Ort sein.
Ich geniesse viel Autonomie über meine Arbeit und meine Arbeitszeit. Klar Kund*innen stehen im Mittelpunkt, denn ihre spannenden Projekte und ihr partnerschaftliches Vertrauen ermöglichen uns diese Autonomie.
Ich habe das Glück, Teamkollegen zu haben, denen ich blind vertrauen kann. Besonders schätze ich, dass wir wertschätzend und reflektiert miteinander umgehen. Selbst in herausfordernden Zeiten gelingt es uns immer wieder, diese mit viel Humor zu meistern.
Im Agenturbereich wirklich gut. Vor allem transparent und diskriminierungsfrei.
Ich habe unglaublich spannende Aufgaben und Kunden. Die Arbeit auf Agenturseite bringt zudem viel Abwechslung mit sich. Mit jedem Projekt lerne ich dazu, gestalte Neues und entwickle mich kontinuierlich weiter.
Liebe*r Liiper*in,
Herzlichen Dank für die freundliche Bewertung, und auch dafür, dass du dir Zeit genommen hast für die Erkärungen. Es freut uns, dass du die Autonomie und die Mit-Verantwortung schätzt und lebst. 💚
Viele Grüße,
Nadja
Menschen, Prozesse funktionieren (Holacracy rocks)

Dear Liiper
Thank you so much for your outstanding recommendation.
We're happy to have you on board and if there is anything we can do, to make your experience even better, reach out to your People Specialist.

Freedom, purpose, passion.
Great vibes, talented and passionate people, open, trustworthy and friendly. You feel taken care of - sports offerings, massages, company events, and a great atmosphere.
Work is hybrid and following self-organisation you can make your own hours. Personal commitments are respected.
You have an educational budget in amounts of money and hours that can be spent furthering your knowledge. You also can choose a mentor to help you further build your expertise or work competencies.
Salary could be better. But you get immaterial benefits like freedom, a great work environment, work-life balance, self-organization. Depends what you prioritise.
The salary is transparent, so you know what everyone earns (not a taboo topic). There is no difference between genders, which is great.
Sustainability, inclusivity, and diversity are not just buzzwords. Great lengths are taken to improve the company's sustainability.
Teams are friendly and open to collaboration. You are constantly meeting new people due to the 6 offices around Switzerland.
The company is self-organised and there are no managers, so you have full freedom - but also full responsibilities ;)
Communication is open, mistakes are accepted and addressed instead of swept under the rug.
No day is the same!
A real care for the employees
Holacracy based organisation, meaning clarity in what is expected and options to move within the org
Further education policy
There are some very talented and unique personalities working at the company whom I learned a lot from.
"Shadow management" overruling Holacracy, the salary system, and the unprofessional attitude of some
Stop pretending you are still a small software company consisting solely of best friends. You are constantly growing, and you need to make sure to behave accordingly. This means more professionalism, especially regarding the communication, more structure and more realistic salaries.
This one is a hit or miss, depending on who you get to work together with. As there is no management, there is a clear lack of extrinsic motivation for the employees to be polite with each other. Mobbing and insulting can be seen on a daily basis, and HR is powerless against it, because everyone is self-managed. Fortunately the majority of the people are a pleasure to work together with, but the work culture is definitely not all roses.
Liip is widely known and is highly regarded by many when it comes to technical know-how.
There is a constant pressure to get more work done than your peers, disregarding any other factors.
Even right after a surgery, you are compared to the workaholic person from the other team doing crazy hours every day, and you are expected to do the same, with the reasoning that others are doing it too.
You do get opportunites and financial assistance to improve and learn, but there won't be a mentor guiding you or telling what to do, so be prepared to organize and figure out things by yourself.
Once again, since everyone is the same, compensation is decoupled from the real world job market. Depending on your job title and skillset and even location, you will be over or underpaid. Employees are occasionally allowed to buy company shares, if you get the opportunity buy as many as you can. This is the easiest way to boost your income during your stay at Liip.
Many long time employees don't work fulltime in this company, they usually have side hustles to earn real money, and work a couple days at Liip mostly for fun.
Lights and heating are controlled by IoT devices, since employees tend to forget turning them off and closing the windows when leaving the rooms. This pretty much sums up the environmental awareness of the company.
As long as you are beneficial to them, people will treat you nicely.
You changed teams? You had no paid work for a couple weeks?
Consider yourself fortunate if you even get a hi in the mornings.
If you happen to be an OG and do get hired - and that's a big if - rest assured, you will be treated the same as everyone else.
Holacracy is a form of meritocracy, meaning that the roles are decoupled from your job title. This means that in theory anyone could fulfil any role. On paper this is an exciting opportunity for each and every employee, in reality it means that someone without any proper training in leadership or communication could end up in a role you have to confide in. This resulted my sensitive information getting leaked two times without my consent.
Other than that, decisions are taken seemingly at random, and there is a lack of transparency with many uncomfortable discussions taking place behind the scenes.
Everyone is the same, so everyone gets the same budget for computers and work related tools. Depending on your projects you will need a powerful machine as a developer, but you will still be limited to entry to medium level consumer laptops, unless you bring your own.
More often than not too lax and improper, both internally and externally.
I could write a book full of my personal anecdotes, but just to name a few things that bothered me the most:
1. The clients are paying good money for your services and they should be able to expect a certain level of professionalism. I felt extremely embarrassed to be associated with Liip whenever I had colleagues insult each other or even clients in meetings.
2. Feedback is scarce by default (once, maybe a couple times a year), and most of the time it is less about constructive feedback, and more of an instrument to haggle a salary raise. I had other employees asking to exchange good feedbacks on several occasions.
3. Translations are subpar. You have native employees in many different languages, please at the very least ask them to proof-read whatever you publish if you refuse to consult a translation agency.
I do feel like Liip deserves five stars, but in my humble opinion Liip went too far to achieve it. When I saw people getting angry over others refering the coffee machine by it's female model name or when we were advised to use the word craftswomanship over craftsmanship I was left speechless. It felt like some people were constantly on the lookout for artificial problems to solve.
Interesting projects are constantly fought over, with many people straight on refusing to work on legacy and/or less interesting projects. If you do apply at Liip, make sure to ask as many details about the project you would be working on, as it is a common practice to hire people to take care of projects abandoned by everyone else.
Bei Liip ist der Fokus darauf den Mitarbeitern spannende Aufgaben geben zu können, aber dabei bleibt der wirtschaftliche Erfolg nicht aus.
Self-Management ist nicht für jeden Ideal. Die Freiheiten kommen auch mit viel Erwartung an verantwortliches Handeln. Das kann auch mal dazu führen, dass man sich selber unter Druck setzt.
Weiter investieren in Feedback Kultur.
Dank Self-Management kann jeder sich im vollen Umfang einbringen mit seinen Talenten und Interessen.
Liip hat ein extrem gutes Images sowohl in der Schweiz aber auch International als Arbeitgeber der Nachhaltigkeit im Fokus hat und Mitarbeiter anzieht die State of the Art Projekte umsetzen.
Urlaub kann auch kurzfristig genommen werden und es wird nie Druck aufgebaut den Urlaub nur zu bestimmten Zeiten zu nehmen. Im Urlaub wird man in Ruhe gelassen. 4 Wochen Vaterschaftsurlaub und 100% Lohn im Mutterschaftsurlaub. Der grossteil der Belegschaft arbeitet in Teilzeit.
Persönliches Weiterbildungsbudget, mehr oder weniger freie Rollenwahl, Möglichkeit neue Geschäftsfelder aufzubauen.
Löhne sind insbesondere fair dank Punktesystem. Da es keine externen Investoren gibt, wandert auch kein Geld aus dem Unternehmen. Ziel sind 14 Monatslöhne, was meistens auch erreicht wird. Dazu keine unbezahlte Überstunden und viele Goodies wie Massage, Gadgetbudget usw.
Liip engagiert sich intern und extern.
Trotz 5 Standorte und mittlerweile über 150 Mitarbeiter besteht ein enger Zusammenhalt.
Der Altersdurchschnitt geht langsam nach oben. Mitarbeiter über 45 sind relativ selten, aber es gibt keinerlei Vorbehalte.
Gibt es bei uns in diesem Sinne eh nicht.
Alle können selber mitgestalten. Es wird Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit gelegt.
Die ganze Infrastruktur ist darauf ausgelegt im Team, im Standort oder je nach Thema über alle Standorte hinweg kommunizieren zu können.
Leider sind in der Entwicklung und Administration die Verteilung nicht optimal und daher vielleicht nur leicht besser als der Industriedurchschnitt. In den anderen Bereichen aber schon.
Mit dem eigenen Team (ca. 10-15 Personen) sucht man sich selber die Projekte aus und setzt nach eigenen Interessen Prioritäten in bestimmten Technologien, Branchen etc.
Hoher Output, steile Lernkurve
Grosse Vielfalt an Tools kann für Neulinge verwirrend sein.
Gehälter eher niedrig, dafür viele Goodies.
So verdient kununu Geld.
