Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

I have never had such great colleagues - will be difficult to forget them

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

One particular manager has demonstrated a lack of suitability for his role, as he has not shown adequate support or interest in his team's concerns, especially when they were seeking guidance or raising important issues.

He has also struggled to contribute constructive ideas, likely due to limited relevant experience in similar roles. As a result, the team was left to rely on their own knowledge and tools, effectively operating without meaningful leadership or direction.

Additionally, he came across as unreliable and unapproachable, often unwilling to actively listen to or engage with input from his team members.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

I share the opinion of the previous review

Work-Life-Balance

Unfortunately, C-level managers appeared to assess employee performance primarily based on physical presence and time spent in the office, rather than on outcomes, productivity, or the quality of results delivered.

Gehalt/Benefits

Partially covered gym membership

Kollegenzusammenhalt

It is such a pity to have so talented colleagues, 90% shadowed by the arrogance of the senior managers. The expertise of the colleagues was not evaluated and not taken into consideration.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

The managers (excluding senior executives) demonstrated a strong combination of technical expertise in their respective fields and admirable interpersonal skills. They were approachable, attentive, and consistently provided thoughtful, constructive feedback

Vorgesetztenverhalten

There was a noticeable lack of trust in employees, and leadership demonstrated an unwillingness to accept feedback. While challenging, the experience offered valuable insight into identifying red flags to be mindful of when evaluating future managers and workplaces.

Kommunikation

There was a lack of transparent guidelines or consistency, and one particular senior manager exhibited poor communication skills, which led to confusion and disruption within the team.

Gleichberechtigung

Male dominated, just one female manager

Arbeitsatmosphäre

Rigid and opaque work culture. While I had the opportunity to collaborate with talented and experienced colleagues, their expertise was often overlooked in decision-making. In a startup environment, where flexibility and innovation should be encouraged, this approach felt counterproductive.

Work-life balance was a challenge, as overtime was frequently expected. While additional hours were informally rewarded with free dinners, there was an unspoken pressure to participate. Those who regularly declined seemed to have fewer career opportunities within the company. Additionally, internal processes appeared to follow a predetermined path set by management, with little transparency or employee involvement. This lack of openness became especially evident when over 20% of the workforce was unexpectedly laid off in a single day, creating an atmosphere of uncertainty.

Overall, Makerverse has a team of skilled professionals, but the company’s culture and leadership style create an environment that can feel restrictive rather than empowering. More transparency, openness to employee input, and a healthier work-life balance would significantly improve the experience.

HR TeamDigital Recruiter

We understand that transparency, employee involvement, and work-life balance are crucial aspects of a positive work environment. As a startup, we strive to balance agility and structured decision-making, and we acknowledge that there is always room for improvement.

Regarding the workforce reduction, this was one of the most difficult decisions we’ve had to make. Like many companies navigating the current economic climate, we explored all possible alternatives before taking this step. We recognize that such changes impact not only those who leave but also those who stay, and we remain committed to fostering an open and supportive environment during challenging times.

We also understand that perspectives on a workplace can shift, particularly in the context of layoffs. While we regret that your experience has led to this perception, we appreciate your recognition of the talented team at Makerverse. We will continue working on building a culture that encourages both innovation and collaboration. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.

Nicht empfehlenswert – toxisches Arbeitsumfeld

Meine Erfahrung mit Makerverse war leider sehr enttäuschend. Das Arbeitsumfeld ist stark von einer toxischen Führungskultur geprägt. Statt konstruktiver Zusammenarbeit herrscht ein Klima der Angst und Unsicherheit. Feedback wird nicht wertgeschätzt, sondern als Kritik ausgelegt, und die Kommunikation ist oft respektlos.

Wer eine gesunde, wertschätzende Unternehmenskultur sucht, ist hier definitiv fehl am Platz. Ich kann Makerverse leider nicht empfehlen.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

From day one, I felt encouraged to contribute and bring in new ideas. There’s a genuine openness to change and improvement—no “we’ve always done it this way” mentality, and no feeling of being the “newbie who just wants to change everything.” Instead, my input has been met with curiosity and appreciation from the team, my manager, and even the leadership.

What really stands out is the level of support and trust. I’ve received warm and constructive feedback from the start, and my expertise has never been questioned—neither as a newcomer nor as a woman in my role.

A particular highlight is my manager, who truly prioritizes psychological safety. He makes a real effort to ensure that everyone in the team feels seen, heard, and valued. It creates an environment where people can do their best work and thrive.

Excited to keep growing and contributing here!

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

As with any fast-moving company, things can sometimes feel a bit unstructured, and cross-team alignment isn’t always perfect. Expectations are high, and you’re given a lot of ownership early on, which is great for learning but can also be challenging if you prefer more structure. Work-life balance is generally respected, though there are phases where things get intense. The good thing is that the company is aware of these challenges and genuinely open to improving processes and ways of working.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

To further improve, introducing more structured reflection moments—not just within teams, but also across teams—could help refine ways of working and improve collaboration without slowing things down. While ownership and responsibility are key strengths, adding more flexibility—whether through clearer priority-setting, focus time, or occasional async work—could help maintain a strong work-life balance, even during busier times. Additionally, as the company scales, empowering teams even more by giving them the space to execute independently could help unlock their full potential while allowing leadership to focus on the bigger picture.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

An unpleasant work environment overall.

Partly because of one senior leader's anger issues (throwing chairs, shouting, insults). Other senior leaders do not stop this behaviour, essentially supporting it.

It's widely known in the company to get legal insurance to protect yourself from management's labour practices. This legal protection has been very helpful to a couple colleagues already.

Very high turnover from people quitting, being asked to sign mutual termination agreements, and when 20% of the company was laid off in January 2025.

One thing I appreciated about MakerVerse was its vibrant and diverse workplace culture. Many of my colleagues were professionals who willingly shared their knowledge, helping me grow professionally. Their guidance and insights were invaluable, and I learned a lot from working alongside them.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

There was occasionally a gap in the basic knowledge of German labor laws and especially for working students, since the majority of employees were not from the country, which at sometimes was a bit annoying, as many aspects required further clarification from others, despite being considered basic legal knowledge.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

I found the checkouts on Fridays, where everyone should share their "highlights" to be a bit weird. Personally, I often found myself without any noteworthy highlights to share, and the expectations to present oneself with enthusiasm felt also somewhat odd. HR eventually abandoned this idea, which was amazing.

Regarding the checkouts on Thursday, with the increasing size of the teams and the workload, it became progressively challenging to stay informed about each team's activities and accomplishments. It also seemed that many individuals were primarily focused on their tasks/team and less interested in the whatever the other teams were doing unless it directly impacted their deadlines.

Brownbag sessions also had their drawbacks, while I found the management presentations on the company's progress to be very interesting. These sessions became less relevant when individuals from various teams presented topics that are only relevant to their work.
