A growing high-tech impact-driven startup
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Communication inside the company is great, it makes you feel like a family member.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Orbem is a startup, for the good and the bad.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
It would be nice to have our company space with access to a sports facility.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
I always feel comfortable working at Orbem and collaborating with other colleagues. In general, I appreciate the respectful sense of humor that smooth interaction and brings good vibes to the daily work.
Kommunikation
The organization at Orbem is mostly flat and managers are accessible and open to discuss any matter. Besides, we have regular updates on the progress in those areas that are less visible. The information flows to the point that the teams are involved in the definition of yearly and quarterly goals.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
It is part of the corporate culture to communicate respectfully, openly, and transparently. I feel that whenever I need extra support from a colleague they are always willing to give me a hand, so I do the same with the colleagues.
Work-Life-Balance
At Orbem everyone owns their own work. We get our list of tasks every sprint, and if you think it is too much load there is room for changes. It is our responsibility to organize it in the way it works best for us, which is quite useful working remotely. In general, vacation periods are very flexible.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
Communication with the managers is also open and transparent, and they are reachable most of the time. In general, goals are ambitious but they are discussed with the team following Agile practices. Because we participate in the yearly and quarterly definitions of goals, I can tell that employees have a big saying in the decision-making process.
Interessante Aufgaben
Part of the corporate culture is to have total ownership of the tasks. This means that you make your own decisions. Of course, you are expected to discuss them with the rest of the team and have a common vision of the project.
Gleichberechtigung
Career paths and compensations for each position are transparently communicated so nobody can be discriminated against. Furthermore, there are 7 nationalities in the company, including the cofounders coming each from a different country.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Senior colleagues are very supportive and you can learn a big deal from them.
Arbeitsbedingungen
There is good IT support that reacts on time to solve problems. Besides, computers and workstations are powerful and accessible, also cloud resources. As a startup, Orbem offices are shared with other companies, and that limits the access to meeting rooms, although it creates a nice atmosphere for innovation. There are plans to move to a private space by the end of 2021.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
The technology that we are creating aims to create a sustainable world.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
All the employees get company participation along with their salaries when they enter the company. I personally consider it fair given that Orbem is a startup company. The promotion criteria are clear and have been communicated internally together with salary and participation increments.
Image
I have a high opinion of Orbem. We are developing high-tech technology and we do it in a good collaborative environment.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Besides the clear career paths, everyone has personal OKRs to guide their personal development. Most importantly, the company is growing what is openning opportunities.
