- Spendesk has a talent to hire people with great mindset, everybody is playing for one team and strive for progress (not only personal but the progress of the team and company) + everybody is genuinly nice and helpful. Its really great place to work
- great product that really helps businesses!
- competitive salary
- hiring is rather reactive als proactive. sometimes it is waited till somebody reaches full capacities and then the help is hired which sometimes is very tiring however its also sth that I know is already worked on. The work itself is really great, its just the workload that should be considered..
- communication within my team is good however too many means of communications are used. Its easy to miss out on important information
- better adapt to particular markets
A lot of overtime. Working hours are "flexible" but there is no way to finish before 6-7 pm which by higher workload and intensity of work is very tiring
+ There could be more days-off. It already increased a bit however heres no comparison to what french cooworkers have.
People are really great!
to many means of communications, slack channels - easy to miss on important updates
- very helpful colleagues, who are nice and always happy to help
- pay
- Management
- Organization
- praising open culture, but not sticking to it
- adapt to the german market (Laws, hire HR people especially for that market!, etc.)
- show more empathy and don't treat employees like machines that have to perform. A lack of motivation may come from this, if you don't see the human behind it.
- get away from a centralized french organization. Everything takes a ton of time and may get lost on its way.
- Ownership ≠ Working extra hours for a basic job title. Where are the real side projects to work on, that need ownership?
The colleagues you work with throughout the different departments are nice and very helpful. Due to high pressure coming from management, you are always under great stress and must improve in a short amount of time, if you don't hit your targets.
Be ready to put a lot of overtime
- First come first serve mentality: Older employees are most likely to get promoted or a new job.
- no real possibilities for further education. You get some basic trainings for the job but thats it.
- Lack of experience for leadership, but great knowledge about product and market
- Praising open feedback culture but shut down any critique you give them
Even if you work for the german market, your supervisors will be french, so be ready to adapt to french culture and organization. You need your pay slips for your tax declaration? Ask the french HR colleagues, they'll give them to you in a few months or never.
Repetitive (core) work, which is ok, but no real side projects you could work on.
- Competitive Salary within the Market
- Some smart, helpful and nice colleagues (until they leave)
- Very inexperienced & young middle management (first comes first serves, people who were at Spendesk in the first year are in management positions - often with clear lack of good leadership skills & knowledge)
- Internally people refer to the middle management as the "mafia" - management by fear, no trust, micro-management & highly political: There is a huge gap and communication problem between the “old” & “new” employees (first class vs. 2nd class) - also because they just started to hire HR professionals very recently and still don’t know much about successful people & culture processes
- Bad & arbitrary decisions leads to employees cheating the system/numbers and advising other people to do it, especially in sales
- High turnover: In a short time of period a lot of people left due to bad culture and management
- Fake culture: They don’t execute the culture they advertise, e.g. they have the value "ownership" but ask people in sales to work like a robot with no autonomy. As a “human” resource you execute top-down commands. They tell you how to structure your agenda hour by hour
- For the management it's more important to serve their ego instead of making the company successful
- replace the inexperienced young middle management with more experienced managers, or train new managers better
- hire an experienced people and culture department (the current one is a HR department with no knowledge how to ensure happy employees), who can really execute the culture you want to have
- Re-evaluate the sales process which kills the motivation of smart people who bring in great results but not the activity (concentrate on the "what", not only the "how")
- Value bottom-up feedback: Ask for it all the time and act on it, so that your valuable employees are not afraid to speak up and change the status quo
