Zukunftsweisende cloudbasierende Kassenlösung mit integrierten Payment. Für den KMU bis zum Enterprise Kunden - mit eigener Hardware und mit APIs zur Anbindung von externen Services. Leider oft dilettantisch in der Umsetzung.
Keine Transparenz, keine Budgetplanung, undurchsichtiger Cashflow, der mit verspäteten Gehaltszahlungen endet. Barauslagen werden erst nach Urgenzen mit 2 Monaten Verzögerung refundiert.
Komplette Reorganisation und Neustart. Planungssicherheit im Cashflow herstellen.
Die Arbeitsatmosphäre wird von Unsicherheit und Angst geprägt
Es fällt schwer, die internen Missstände nicht nach außen zu tragen
Ist man mal krank, wird darauf in der Geschäftsleitung keine Rücksicht genommen
Mülltrennung
Weiterbildungen finden Mangels Budgetplanungen nicht statt
Meist tolle, gut ausgebildete Kollegen.
Keine Zielvorgaben und mangelnde Planung führen zu Frustation
Moderne Büroeinrichtung, Smartphones und Laptops teilweise veraltet
Kommunikation läuft via Slack - wird aber bei Bedarf von den Geschäftsleitung gelöscht
Gehaltszahlungen kommen regelmäßig um 2-3 Wochen zu spät
das Produkt und Vision
schlimme Arbeitskultur, viel Einschüchterung, Druck und wenig Kommunikation
ich finde, der Gründer sollte lernen besser mit seinen Mitarbeitern umzugehen. Regelmässig werden die Mitarbeiter lautstark angesprochen. Ich möchte nicht mehr vom Vorgesetzten angeschrien werden.
Ich finde: Unter den Kollegen ist die Stimmung ganz gut. Doch sobald es unerwartete und sehr oft irrationale Anweisungen des Gründers gibt, wird der Druck von den Leads an die untere Etage weitergetragen. Und das macht alles andere als Spaß.
sehe nichts Modernes
Ich finde: Keine Arbeitszeiterfassung, Arbeitszeiten nach Vertrauen, Überstunden mit dem Gehalt abgegolten. Teilweise arbeiten die Kollegen von Montag-Sonntag und müssen jederzeit parat stehen, vor allem, wenn der Gründer remote aus der USA arbeitet - da müssen sich die Mitarbeiter und deren Familien nach dem Gründer richten. Empathie gibt es keine.
bedingt, doch der Gründer ist bemüht seine Mitarbeiter zu befördern. Er fordert allerdings sehr viel.
leicht überdurchschnittlich
Hilft schon seinen Mitarbeitern, wenn man den Gründer darum bittet
Ganz gut.
Ich finde: Einer der schlimmsten Führungskräfte, die ich erlebt habe. Er spricht nur mit der Elite. Mit den ganz normalen Mitarbeitern in den unteren Abteilungen, wird jede Kommunikation verweigert und ist nicht erreichbar. Oft wird man von oben herab behandelt, er schreit regelmässig seine Leads an, hat zudem eine interessante Einschüchterungs-/Drohungspolitik.
keine ausgeglichene Arbeitszeiten und viele Überstunden
Ich finde: Informationen werden vorenthalten, vergessen u/o ignoriert. Der Gründer kann nicht gut kommunizieren.
es geht so, eher sehr männlich
Sehr tolles Produkt und Unternehmensvision. Noch der Grund, wieso ich da bin.
In April and May 2016 I´ve been going through a series of interviews with NumberFour. The whole process was rather lengthy and multi-stage, but overall very pleasant.
It follows a rather standard pattern: first preliminary, semi-automatic filters, to see if you even remotely match the job description. Second you go through an HR filter. This one was quite entertaining and unusual in its content. Do not expect the typical "what is your biggest weakness" or "what do you see yourself doing in 5 years". Finally you get to the technical interview. The guys there are brilliant, extremely experienced and will immediately detect any skills you may lack. Such was my case. They zeroed in on a particular weakness of mine, which speaks volumes about their knowledge.
Still, I made it to the final stage, which is the on-site interview in Berlin.
However at this stage, do to external reasons, I withdrew.
In summary, the totality of the proces was professional, well organized and tailored to my particular situation (8 hours of time zone difference). The company gave me a very good impression and I will consider replying, as soon as my circumstances change.
Innovation
Kompetente Kollegen
Modere Infrastruktur
Fahrradkeller vorhanden
Als Fahradfahrer wünsch ich mir eine Duschmöglichkeit
I'm working at Numberfour for a few years now. Before that I also worked for other kinds of start-ups, so I would assume that I know the start-up environment pretty well. During my time at NumberFour I experienced some positive change, which gives me understanding for some of the previous reviews. Nowadays there is improvement in both offices Berlin and Hamburg. In Berlin you have a small team of engineers (about 15), which makes it very close-knit and friendly, so you can really be yourself at N4. The colourful international mixture will take you in just the way you are. Going to work doesn't feel like a duty to earn money, it feels like being part of something exciting. Working @ NumberFour gives you great insight to a fast paced environment, you work very close with the management board. The CEO is demanding, but also passionate about the product. If you appreciate fast decisions and an independent working atmosphere with a lot of room for creativity, this is the right place for you! At times it can be challenging, but it's so very much rewarding.
People tend to take all the benefits for granted. Sometimes you feel like there is a lack of communication. It seems like some of the people forget that communication flow might be relevant also outside of their own teams.
Keep working on internal communication!
An exciting project; great engineers; good hardware; modern technology stack. If you can focus 100% on your technical excellence within predefined constraints, be prepared to work really hard, and ignore any stress, this may be the right company for you.
High turnover; high stress level; tendency towards overtime.
Well, you have your own way, and it seems to work for some people. I wish you to find more of such people with lower turnover rate.
Atmosphere suffers from occasional loud arguments, high turnover, and the secrecy when someone is leaving and you often never hear until the day that happens. Otherwise, the daily working atmosphere is okay.
The company has a poor image because of high turnover and taking too long to release the product. Keep in mind that people complaining online are not necessarily representative of the average.
"We work harder than the rest" is the official position. Expect to spend extra hours. On a few occasions, there were also poorly justified denied vacation requests.
The company will pay for events and trainings which you can justify, and for any books you need. Regarding career opportunities, the structure is mostly flat, and senior positions most often require long-time loyalty, so be patient.
I met some of the smartest engineers here, and made some friends as well.
Senior people are actually treated with the greatest respect here.
The boss is very demanding both with himself and with others. That may sound fair, but it is more natural to put in 200% effort for the main beneficiary than for a salaried employee. Also it often takes an overwhelming amount of evidence to prove your ideas when they differ from the bosses, to a point that many people give up and either shut up or leave. This trickles down through middle managers as well, because they don't want to get into lengthy arguments too often, either. At least you can be certain your boss is not dumb, and if you can stand the pressure, it will make you stronger.
Rooms in Berlin are okay; in Hamburg many developers share a big room that has a lot of space, but some people may not like this setting. If you need any improvement to your computer, normally you can just ask and get it quickly.
Communication about requirements and implementation tends to lean heavily in one direction (downwards). Communication of changes in staff is poor.
The salary scale seems fair, and stock options are common.
As an engineer, the project is interesting but you don't have as much freedom in decisions as you may expect from other startups. There is also an idea of code ownership, so expect to specialize in a few sections of the project, rather than try a bit of everything.
I have worked for lots of companies, many of them startups, some have been good and some have been bad. The bad ones were bad because management didn't care about the technical workers nor the technical work nor were very focused on the product. They were focused on their own careers. That is not the case here.
I can only speak for myself, but I know that I have been fairly treated and loaded up with interesting, meaningful, work and given the tools that I need to do it. These are the things I want most from a job.
I am not sure about what some of my former colleagues have written, and in fact some of their reviews are upsetting.* I think sometimes people have different expectations for what it is like to work for a startup, what is expected of you, the amount of intensity you have to embrace to create good products from nothing. Forming a startup is (relatively) easy. Making a lasting product that has a big impact takes a lot of doing.
There is an expression, one that I have never liked, that goes "Shoot for the moon and you just might hit a star." Well here that is not how it is here. It is more "Shoot for the moon, hit the moon, celebrate and be happy because hitting the moon was difficult."
* For example, as far as I know, we have never had a foosball table. And I have never heard of company beers being offered after 8. /I/ have invited colleagues to meet me at the bar and drink beers after 8 because that is when /I/ drink beers. Usually.
Extreme Fluktuation, kein Gestaltungsfreiraum, willkürliches Management.
Der Versuch, über etwas zu denken, aber ich kann nicht.
Super interessante Aufgaben, aber super hilfreich Management. Ganze Umgebung wird saugen Sie Energie und Leben aus dir sehr schnell. Fluktuation von Menschen ist auch sehr groß, die Atmosphäre macht nur noch schlimmer.
Sie werden gebeten, lange Stunden jeden Tag arbeiten, sehr oft gefragt, um auch am Wochenende zu arbeiten, und es ist in keiner Weise kompensiert. Das Schlimmste von allem ist, Kommunikation und viele Lügen.
Colleagues were great.
Horrible management
So verdient kununu Geld.
