The office, the location, the colleagues, the spirit.
In my experience, the communication style of management was sometimes direct and demanding. Additionally, I observed a tendency towards close supervision (“micromanagement”), which at times limited flexibility in daily tasks
In my view, there is potential for improvement in the communication of upper management, especially concerning modern work requirements. I have witnessed individual colleagues reporting on rather loud and emotional discussions in meetings, which makes me, as an observer, reflect on the situation.
I perceived the work atmosphere as mediocre. Fairness and trust from supervisors were lacking, with more micromanagement and stressful communication. However, it is significantly better among peers.
During my time there and also after I left, I noticed that the company is viewed critically within the industry, which can be attributed to certain managers and their behavior.
quite normal, depends on your team and tasks
I have not perceived a strong awareness for environmental or social issues. So, one cannot give any stars here.
The German courses were a good offer
The colleagues are really great in every respect.
The behavior of management in conflict situations was often loud from my perspective, which created an uncomfortable work environment.
The conditions are generally quite good. You can have a Mac or a Windows PC. On the negative side, the extremely outdated company phones are really not great.
I found the communication with the management to be somewhat tense and emotional at times.
The salary is actually okayish. However, it always depends on the position one holds. It's just normal.
Management appears to struggle with accepting honest criticism and suggestions. While some feedback is acknowledged, much of it is dismissed with explanations rather than action. In recent years, the company has conducted layoffs with no prior notice—employees are immediately let go, access is revoked, and equipment is collected on the spot. This abrupt approach can feel cold and distressing, potentially creating a sense of fear and insecurity among remaining staff.
1) Keep a designated desk for everyone.
2) Organise a workshop for senior levels on effective people management skills.
3) Please request associates to keep the noise level down in the silent zone area.
4) Maintain a proper decency and professionalism in the company.
The working atmosphere is generally satisfactory, though there is a lot of room for improvement. While managers are open to hearing associates’ concerns, it sometimes feels that not all feedback is fully considered or acted upon, possibly due to a desire to maintain a certain image. This can be discouraging for junior and mid-level associates, potentially impacting motivation and overall engagement.
While the company puts effort into maintaining a positive image on social media—through employee spotlights, holiday posts, and team events—the internal work environment tells a different story. In my experience, the atmosphere was often toxic and unprofessional. I personally did not feel engaged or comfortable after my first week. Overall, there is a noticeable disconnect between the external image and the internal reality.
This was taken care very seriously, and I do not have any complaints against this point. We could take vacation days anytime, and was never restricted from taking vacations. At times, we had to work extra hours which there were strict deadlines, but thats understood and was never a issue.
During my time with the organisation, I found the approach of senior management to be quite hierarchical and, at times, overly authoritative. Within the team, a lot of managers demonstrated a sense of superiority regarding their knowledge of processes, which could be discouraging for other team members. On one occasion, when I approached a manager with a question about a task, I was met with a dismissive response: "Didn't you know this already?", which I found disheartening. Such interactions can significantly impact morale and diminish an employee’s motivation to perform effectively.
The working conditions were average, but a few aspects were particularly disappointing:
1) Desk Booking: Employees were required to book a desk each time they came to the office. Only HR and Finance managers had designated desks, which created an impersonal environment—even some C-level executives from other teams had to use random desks.
2) Office Environment: Some areas were poorly ventilated, and despite complaints about noise, the designated "silence zone" remained loud and ineffective. Also the overall vibe of the office never felt like being in a office.
3) Return-to-Office Policy: The combination of an uninspiring office setup and a mandatory 40% in-office requirement, tracked rigidly, felt unnecessarily strict and unprofessional.
Communication within the team I worked for was not always well-structured. There appears to be a strong hierarchical dynamic, which can make it challenging for junior team members to have their perspectives heard by senior management. In addition to that, not all information is communicated in a timely or clear manner, which has occasionally led to significant delays in task execution due to misunderstandings or lack of clarity.
From day one, everyone was incredibly welcoming, and there's a strong sense of collaboration—not just within teams, but also across them.
At times, the workload can be high, but the company provides the flexibility to manage it effectively.
An outstanding team mentality with exceptional team spirit.
Exceptional mentoring and continuous feedback are provided to support personal growth and improvement.
One of the best offices in Berlin, located in a great spot, with the added flexibility to work from home.
Transparent, open, and honest communication. I can't think of anything that could be improved.
Everyone is treated equally, regardless of gender, cultural background, religious orientation, or any other factor.
I enjoy what I do—there's creative freedom and a high level of trust from management, empowering individuals with responsibility.
Great vibes, people are focused but friendly.
Absolutely perfect.
Currently not a lot of opportunity that is laid out for growth in the company - roles are often focused on external candidates, not a lot of education/training/structured development.
Not really any benefits at the moment, I feel I'm compensated well for my role.
This is a focus, although not so important to me - so my 5 stars is without a lot of thought on the topic.
Shining star - friendly people who are helpful and go out of your way to make life better.
My supervisor is incredibly thoughtful, helpful, and a great boss.
This could be improved - goals aren't perfectly communicated in the company. More could be transparent in terms of the budget, the presentations could be more clear. They have room to grow here.
Hiring is diverse - different sexualities, religions, skin colour, nationalities. At the top level it is predominantly white German men, which is why I cannot give it 5 stars.
I think this depends on your team.

Work-life balance with flexible working hours.
The team is very welcoming, competent and communicative.
There is a lot of flexibility and the option to work in another country for a certain period helps a lot with balance.
It's good that they have the German course, and I believe that this year they are trying to improve the issue of career development.
I believe that salaries for some roles could be improved and better balanced among team members who are at the same level.
I don't see any difference between new and old colleagues, everyone is equally respected.
I really like the office, because it is well located, easy to find what you need and has spaces where we can enjoy the view and have coffee.
Communication happens, and people value it. However, some things could be better explained, but I can see the improvement and the commitment to improve.
I personally appreciate the spontaneity and the room for trying the company has: you can always try and get out of the boxe
The processes for evolution and evaluation could be improved to be completely equal in all the teams
Friendly and open minded work space
Big flexibility
Many activities and events are offered to have nice off work moments with our colleagues
open and transparent communication
The atmosphere is quiet and distant amongst colleagues. For instance, even when in the office, I find that people would rather send a message/ticket rather than discuss the topic with you in person, or just to simply say hi.
The German course is a great idea.
Getting there!
Some interesting tasks given by higher-ups that are outside of the daily/weekly routine.
Amazing office, wonderful coffee, outstanding work-life balance with flexible working hours.
The upper management has very low capabilities in personnel forecasting. Layoffs are followed by mass hiring. Amazing events are followed by letting go of the senior individual contributors. The amazing office is constantly shrinking and the concept is trying to be built again since it is originally too spacious and even with the theoretical possibility of having desks for every employee, it cannot do it. The efforts to bring the employees back to the office just slowly move to threatening with legal issues.
my colleagues and the trust placed in me
Lower salaries
Encourage more female-led roles
There could be more female leadership
