A pathological ,,startup''
|
|
The office is in Mitte and free drinks
|
Endless cringeworthy lip service to Ray Dalio’s Principles but leadership doesn’t follow anything. The company believes that by pretending to be a successful tech startup it’ll become one.. ,,Radical transparency'' is a thing but most people are kept in the dark and conversations are one sided and often abusive. The company is run by incompetent sadistic bullies reminiscent of the Stasi. Inconsistent pay. Leadership sends threatening slack messages after 8pm. Very concerned about the positive reviews here. Don’t work here if you value self respect and decent human beings

Some nice colleagues from within the team, but each teams are competing with each other for nothing
|
+ Very unrealistic managers who set unrealistic goals but never actually archive anything. Started up for years with nothing to show for.
+ The culture is a toxic one because of the high pressure so called "Principle" and long hour work (work until 6pm or more on Friday) but very low pay in Berlin (not enough to pay rent)
+ Diversity and support is poor, no wonder most female colleagues already left. Turn over is high as most engineers here only stay for 1 year or so.

a company more interested in keeping up a good image than actually facing it's problems
|
|
The team spirit is good and people help each other and the company keeps up a good image in the german proptech market.
|
It feels to me that many reviews on almost any platforms are at least suspicious. In contrary to what it seems and the management proclaimes there is not much transparency when it comes to criticism and failures. Any of my attempts to alter/pivot an idea or question the upper management was kept under wraps. The management installed so called principles like Transparency but does not follow them what leads to a toxic culture of obedience and apathy. Achievements are almost non-existent because unreachable goals are defined by the upper management and were never reached by anyone what led to demotivation across the whole company

live up to your own expectations and learn from your employees and customers if you want to become a truly agile company. Give up on opportunism and become visionary leaders instead of shutting criticism down.

Great company with both pros and cons
|
|
Great place to learn and grow, lots of great colleges, amazing office
|
Depending on your manager and team you’re in, this can have a big impact if you enjoy working there or not. The sprint reviews every week at Friday at 5pm could have been used better (to let us go earlier ;)) And working with OKRs...

The core mentality and the “culture” isn’t really working and won’t work longterm either, cause people won’t stick around, unless you want to raise soldiers for an army :)

Great place to work and grow!
|
|
Engaged, young, driven team
Products that matter in the real world
Performance environment
Fast paced
Atmosphere of "radical truthfulness & transparency", meaning everyone can give input and everyones input is actually valued
|
Environment is changing quickly - guess this is normal for a startup, but needs to be known.
Performance environment - hard work and excellent quality is expected and valued, coaching and feedback is provided to drive it, but very little tolerance is performance is not right over the long run

Excellent Colleagues, a place where you can grow
|
|
I've met some really amazing people in this company and I've learned a lot from them! I've also had a lot of room to experiment with the technologies that I liked, to be creative, to come up with ideas and see them realised.
The technical leadership is very open and, if you want to drive a solution, and you can justify your choices, all the options are open. In fact the CTO is always pushing people to leave their comfort zone and try new things!
And of course, the parties in this company have been legendary :)
|
Good personal time management skills are required, otherwise burnout is a risk. This applies of course to any startup environment.

Great environment for giving your best !
|
|
Great culture - the people, the structure, the philosophy of the company and core values.
Ownership of things - I like the opportunity that I can influence decision/people if something will bring move value to the company. From directly talking to Tech Leads to Product Manager and Management, your voice will be heard.
Learning environment - people from more than 10 countries with different mindset, culture, experience is a great for anyone who joins.
Great team events - board games, drinking parties on Friday or after any milestone we achieve :)

* More transparency on improving.
- Years don't necessary mean experience, and I would love to have something
defined like this is what Lead/Senior X does.
- If we wait on years to pass and then to become/promoted to X, then we slow down the whole process.
- Instead, what I propose is:
-- Define the Lead/Senior position in any department
-- If someone wants to be there as fast as possible, set clear goals about it and
track the whole improvement.
- As a result of this, the person will take more responsibility and will know that whatever she/he does is appreciated and that there's always room for improvement.
- This will also help us to keep all the new people in the company who are eager to learn/provide/improve.
* All this is said in context that not everyone is the same and you can't put all the people in the same box. There are a lot of differences in motivation, ambition from person to person - not everyone is the same. With the previous proposal, we can improve a lot.

- Meaningful product
- Transparent, objective-driven product development
- Technology stack is up to date
- The process is lightweight but comfortable
|
- The success is measured by achieving the goals and not by code delivery
- Teams are responsible for a full cycle including all levels of support

Future of PropTech
|
|
Great opportunity to be part of the future of PropTech in Germany and beyond. Probably one of the most ambitious and interesting ideas in the berlin startup scene.
|
No place for slackers - work hard, own your results, learn continuously and you will have a great time.
