Holidu 

GmbH

Bewertungen

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Holidu has a young, dynamic work environment and a supportive team atmosphere. Working alongside motivated and helpful colleagues makes the day-to-day work experience very enjoyable. In addition, the company fosters a good work-life balance, if you actively seek it out and demand it. A particular advantage is the hybrid work model, which allows for a maximum of two days in the office per week. This flexibility makes it much easier to balance work and personal life and, for me, is the greatest benefit of working at Holidu.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Bonus structures are disadvantageous for employees, as achieving targets is often beyond their control.
Feedback isn’t passed up the chain. There’s a lack of transparency regarding priorities and a lack of communication from (all the way) at the top down. Products are released before they’re fully developed which causes so so so much work.
Employees are not valued financially. Every year, more and more is demanded, without any corresponding compensation from the employer.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Holidu has the potential to be an excellent employer. However, the current push for profitability is putting significant pressure on employees, with many teams already feeling overworked and stretched to their limits. It is important that management recognizes and rewards these efforts once profitability is achieved (with not just another party).

At the same time, more office days, reduced bonus opportunities, and increasing workloads are likely continuing to drive higher employee turnover, particularly in Sales and Account Management, if not addressed soon.

Work-Life-Balance

If you actively set and maintain your boundaries, the work-life balance at Holidu can be quite good, depending on your role and responsibilities.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

There are no opportunities for professional development in Sales and Account Management. Once you have the “Senior” title, you either have to hope that the team will grow large enough for you to be promoted to “Advisor,” or that an “Area Lead” position will become available. Internal hiring at the company is often based on favoritism.

There are learning opportunities, such as leadership programs, for which you have to apply. However, unlike at other companies, completing the program is not viewed as a qualification for internal career advancement. Learnerbly and other options for individual professional development have been discontinued.

Gehalt/Benefits

Kollegenzusammenhalt

The team spirit at Holidu is exceptional. Collaboration within and across teams is truly impressive, people are approachable, supportive, and always willing to help each other. This creates a positive and enjoyable work environment where teamwork is genuinely lived.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Managers generally care about the well-being of their employees and are approachable when concerns arise. However, feedback is not always acted upon effectively, and issues can sometimes get lost in lengthy feedback loops. In some cases, leadership effectiveness could be improved through better alignment between management roles and individual skill sets.

Interessante Aufgaben

After a while, there are no new tasks left. In sales and account management, you do the same thing every day.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Overall, Holidu is a great employer where you can gain valuable experience over a few years. The company has a young and international team, which makes working with colleagues enjoyable and engaging. It also offers many great benefits that contribute to a positive work environment.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

In Sales in particular, the bonus is never fully guaranteed, while the base salary is simply too low. The repeated changes to the bonus structure over the past months, mostly to the disadvantage of employees, have been quite frustrating and disappointing.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

Career progression opportunities are rather limited. Whether you can be promoted to a role such as Senior Advisor often depends on the size of the team rather than on your skills or performance. Unfortunately, advancement is not always based on merit, which is disappointing.

Interessante Aufgaben

In Sales, you generally have the same tasks every day and there isn’t much variety. There are opportunities to take on additional projects, but overall, the work tends to be quite repetitive.

Eigentlich alles, wie auch in meiner Bewertung dargestellt.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Es wird in Zukunft wahrscheinlich viel Cold Calling auf die Sales Mitarbeiter zukommen, muss man natürlich mögen.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Eine sehr lockere Atmosphäre, man kann sich individuell frei entfalten.

Work-Life-Balance

Durch die 2 Office Tage und 3 Tage Homeoffice für mich ideal. Es wird außerdem sehr darauf geachtet, dass du in der Woche nicht mehr als 40 Stunden arbeitest.

Muss man natürlich mögen, für mich passt es perfekt. Sehr viele Videocallverkaufsgespräche, aber genau dadurch ist man auch so flexibel!
