Best way to spend a summer

Suggestions for improvement

  • Hire more interns! Everyone should be able to work with this amazing company.

What I like about the company

As an intern, I never felt like one. I was welcomed as a part of the team, which allowed me to get my hands on many projects, and sit in on lots of relevant meetings.

What I dislike about the company

No dislikes here!

Thanks for your review! We're so happy that you had such a great, positive experience while you were here. We will take your feedback to heart to make sure that every intern (and employee) can enjoy themselves just as much as you did. To us that, at the very least, means making extra certain that they're looped into meetings where they can learn / observe / contribute, getting their hands on a variety of meaningful projects, and including them as part of the team. And then of course, hiring more interns when we can! Thanks again for sharing your feedback with us and please let us know if there's any other feedback we should take into consideration. -kununu

Thanks for your review! We appreciate that you gave specific feedback about things like our small office and suggestion to figure out development and learning opportunities for employees. Since the time of your review we have rearranged our small workspace to give people more quiet places to work and to separate areas in the open space, so hopefully that has made a difference. We are also looking into adding better perks and benefits to our team members, so we will be sure to include learning opportunities as an area to add to. Overall, we will take to heart the areas that you noted could use improvement and do our best to do better for our valued employees. Thanks again and please let us know if there's any other feedback we should consider! -kununu

Thanks for your review! We're very happy to see that you've had an overall very positive experience here. We especially like that you find the job both fun and challenging - definitely a rare combination for any job! As for your individual ratings across the work-life categories - you're right, we did have some room to improve in environmental friendliness. To that end, we're proud to say that since the time of your review, we've installed a Bevi drink machine which helps us saves hundreds of plastic water bottles and seltzer water cans / bottles per month, and we've also better organized our trash and recycling area to help everyone recycle more efficiently. Surely there is always more room to improve, but hopefully this puts us on a good path. Thanks again for your feedback and please feel free to give us more feedback at any time! -kununu

Company response

Thank you for your review! We appreciate all feedback, positive or negative, but we're certainly glad that your perspective on our company is overall a positive one - with five stars across all but one of the areas of work-life that you gave input on. Awesome! And we also agree with your review title! From how much progress we've been making even in the past year alone, we definitely feel as though we're making our way in the US market and we believe that what we're offering is something that the market truly needs. The one area - overall compensation for your work - that you rated us slightly lower than the rest at three stars, we hear your feedback. Indeed, it is very hard to be at the very very top of compensation offerings when you are startup like us! However, what you might like to know is that we just recently did a deep analysis our of benefits and compensation offerings here and we are actually on par or above average in our industry and region across all categories, and that's not mentioning the yearly compensation adjustments and individual merit-based raises we offer to our team members. In any case, thanks again for sharing your feedback with us and please feel free to share more feedback with us at any time! -kununu

Company response

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear your feedback especially the positive aspects of our company you mentioned - supportive and collaborative environment, our being mission-driven, and how we value everyone's experiences and contributions. We actually see this is a great reflection of some of our core values, which makes us really proud: -having an open mind and open company -giving a damn, and -making ingenious improvements (by acting on different perspectives). We also want to acknowledge that you're very right about "growing pains" - It's certainly not easy making your way as a startup, but we're happy to be able to say that since the time of your review, we as a company have made huge progress across all areas of our business - from sales, review content, customer success and market awareness. This has been a record year for us here and next year is looking to be even bigger! Thanks again for your feedback and please feel free to give us more at any time, -kununu

Company response

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your specific feedback! We're glad that you enjoy the openness and accepting culture we have here and hope to maintain that. We've also taken to heart your suggestion for us on how to improve as a company. In terms of making goals more realistic, we been much more mindful about setting goal numbers across the company / in individual teams based on current and historic data and performance so that team members can feel really good about the goals they're working towards (and of course, eventually hitting :D). And as for if being difficult to move fast with our existing structure, we are constantly working to improve our communication and workflow structure with our global team so that working within this "built in structure" makes sense and doesn't hinder us here in the US. And in fact, since the time of your review we've made this a global priority as a company (to be one team, one company, and work together more closely and seamlessly). One small example of how we've put that in action: we're now all on one global Slack workspace. In any case, we're so happy that you can say that this is the 'best job" you've ever had. That's a big statement and we hope to continue to live up to that. Thanks again! -kununu

Company Culture

The perks are amazing. Casual office environment located in one of the best locations surrounded by cafés and restaurants. Free lunch every Friday, ping pong game room, chilled happy hours.

Support from management

The company core values are Boldness, Transparency, Inclusiveness, Empathy and Improvement – the Management encourages the team members to apply them on a day-to-day basis. Management actively look to improve things because they know how important it is to keep the good culture.

Teamwork

The company is amazingly open and flexible: every Friday we hold what's called kununu AllHands where food, beer, etc. is served, new projects are presented. There are open forums to ask the team members anything you want.
