I think it was a toxic culture due toMmanagement by fear, frequent lies, Lack of transparency
As other reviews here mentioned: working overtime is expected.
Peers are great, but management will most likely blame your for their bad decisions
Pressure, lying and lack of accountability
There is an all hands in place, but topics are only there to paint a positive picture, not to adress reality
The first year I joined the work environment was excellent, supportive & very good for professional growth, currently its going down the hill. They are either firing people or people are living themselves. Atleast 5-6 leavers everyday
No Work-Life Balance
Employees are consistently expected to work beyond regular hours, with little regard for personal time. The culture promotes overwork and burnout, making it nearly impossible to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Top-Down Decision-Making
Decisions are made solely by upper management, with little to no input from employees. This creates an environment where employees feel unheard and undervalued, leading to frustration and disengagement.
Major Layoffs This Year
The company conducted significant layoffs, which severely impacted employee morale and created an atmosphere of fear and instability. Many employees felt blindsided by the lack of transparency and security.
Mental Health Struggles
The high-stress environment contributed to mental health issues for many employees. There’s little to no support in place for mental well-being, making it challenging for employees to cope with the constant pressure.
Overwork and High Expectations
Employees are regularly expected to handle unmanageable workloads with unrealistic deadlines. The pressure to perform at this level continuously is exhausting and unsustainable.
1. Prioritize Employee Stability: "I noticed a high turnover rate during my time at Air Up, with frequent hiring and firing that created instability. To improve, I suggest developing a more strategic approach to hiring, where employees are selected with the intention of long-term growth and development. A stable team fosters trust, productivity, and loyalty, which ultimately benefits both the employees and the company."
2. Create a Strong Support System for Employee Well-being: "Many employees, including myself, faced significant mental health challenges due to the work environment. I recommend implementing programs and practices that genuinely support mental well-being, such as regular one-on-ones focused on employee satisfaction, mental health days, and access to counseling resources. Establishing a safe, supportive environment will lead to a happier, more motivated team."
3. Build a Culture of Respect and Transparency: "At times, the culture felt pressured and impersonal, contributing to unnecessary stress. I encourage building a culture rooted in mutual respect and transparency, where employees feel valued and heard. Regular feedback loops, clear communication, and realistic expectations would go a long way in creating a more positive work environment."
4. Invest in Training for Managers: "A company's culture often reflects its leadership. Providing training for managers on empathy, mental health awareness, and constructive communication could help prevent toxicity and improve relationships within teams. Positive leadership can transform the overall employee experience."
The work atmosphere is incredibly exciting. It's a dynamic environment where every team member works hand in hand. The professionalism is on a great level, and the behavior among colleagues is highly supportive. Everyone is eager to be part of the success story at air up, which fosters a strong sense of unity and a willingness to help each other quickly find solutions.
You are super self-responsible how to schedule and organize your day. For sure there are some fixed schedules in your calender. But you have every time the opportunity to create your own best way to work in combination of your private life!
There are always phases where the workload increases, and you need to invest more time. However, everyone is intrinsically motivated, and the extra hours can be compensated with time off later on.
see above
In general air up offers good salarys. There are solid benefits. But it would be great if air up can have a look on the benefits in the near future. Like JobRad, Sodexo vouchers, support for child care ...
We have a great working spirit at air up --> doesn´t matter in which department you work!
We generally maintain a very respectful and collaborative way of working with each other.
Super respectful relationship. Feedback cycle every 6 weeks + performance round in October. Personal development is super important. We are not a corporate - so we do not have strict personal development plans for each role --> but this also means that you always have the opportunity to advance to a different position or seniority level more quickly if your performance is strong.
We have an amazing office in MUC - Werksviertel. Here people can collaborate and brainstorm together. Teamies who work with the physical product - they have a great innovation HUB in the Munich office to collaborate with their stakeholders and project teams. Other teamies in more operational roles are also able to make home office. Air up also offers workcation 6 weeks a year in the EU. Quiet flexible. So you can come to the office when you would like to have some more quality time with your teamies. But with the "remote first" approach in some roles you do not have "fomo" because most of all meetings are remotly.
Monthly all hands call --> Great transperency from the Exec Board what is ongoing in the company. Sometimes it would be good to get updates beside of the all hands call when something special already happend.
We have a great mix of male, female, and diverse team members, representing over 50 different cultures at air up. This truly highlights that what matters most is the talent and the individual, with the right "air up" mindset!
We are still a young professional company --> there are still green fields where you can include your own ideas and improve the processes.
Innovativ, agil, jung, coole Möglichkeiten.
Benennung der Probleme beim Namen. Vor den massiven Ausstellungen wurde keinerlei Info gegeben, was passieren wird und warum (geschweige denn, danach). Vertrauen wieder herstellen (ist bei einigen Kollegen angeknackst).
You get the chance to work with incredibly talented and kind people.
Work from home helps to manage my own schedule
Our leadership is talented and very dedicated. I trust them to do what's right for air up
amazing office
Open and honest.
I love having freedom to choose, having a team that really wants to support each other and is working on trust. The clear focus on delivering customer value and ability to make mistakes and share them openly to learn from it together, has been tremendous and something I have not experienced in any company I worked in during the years before air up.
Being able to work remotely (if not working with or on the product directly, in which case you of course must be physically present) is fantastic and not a given at all in todays world.
As the company grew, we often have centralized certain areas of expertise and specialized too quickly, while we are still in a phase of the journey where we need people who are willing to try new things, are very talented to solve problem and are more generalist.
Only three stars, as unfortunately, there are still people out there who do not believe the product of air up actually works with just water creating a scent taste (I promise, it does!), and some (also longer term) employees have parted ways with the company voluntarily or involuntarily in the first month of 2024 for various reasons, which seem to air out their frustration partially on this platform and at times understandably so, but other times show a wrong picture.
It's left up to you for a large part to balance work and life and most managers advise their teamies and are being advised, to take your personal life serious and air up offers much flexibility for working hours.
A lot is happening on the job and people eager to learn new things are appreciated very well by everyone here at air up and given great opportunities to grow.
Actually, for a company that is only just 5 years old, the income is pretty competitive.
While we are a for-profit organization that is driven both by revenue and cost, there are many initiatives and values that are part of our DNA to consider our environment in everything we do.
You can work outside of Germany (in the EU) for 6 weeks per year, which is cool. They have very good retirement benefits. The salary is average for Munich but no cost of living increases, 13th month, or holiday pay. There is a good mix of male/female at all levels. The company does a lot to reduce its environmental impact. The office is in a good location and new. They have fun company and team events. The hierarchy is mostly flat. 40% off of products for employees, 20% off for friends and family. When a new product is launched, you get a free one.
Many of the company founders are upper management with little or no work experience before starting this company. As you would guess, they make a lot of bad decisions.
They've fired 50+ people so far this year without providing any legitimate reasons. When people are fired, there is no handover so you suddenly find yourself doing things you have no idea about. Of course, added responsibilities and work load do not earn you any more money, just more stress.
Someone tried to form a worker's Union and they fired around 10 people the very next day (very suspicious) and then had an All Hands about how unions are bad.
The company seems to be struggling financially and I wouldn't be surpised if they became insolvent before the end of 2024. Many big decisions are "gut feeling" not data-driven and this will be the end of the company
Your employees are incredibly unhappy and you're doing nothing to fix that
They do not care about how many hours you have worked and it is not recorded
There is no career progression. The only team that gets promoted is the Strategy team
Salary is bad. No cost of living increases, even if you've worked there for years with good performance reviews
They provide 50 euro for Urban Sports and 50% refund for the Deutschland ticket.
They put a big focus on sustainability, until profits started to be affected, then they just stopped focusing on sustainability
I think there are only 2 colleagues close to their pension, but they seem happy
Improving, but still not very good
- spannede Aufgaben
- tolle Kollegen
- Kommunikation auf Augenhöhe
- moderner Arbeitsplatz incl. moderner Tools
- kein 0815 Standard, sondern sehr professionell
- ggf. mehr auf die Tools aufmerksam machen, wo man sich welche Daten/Informationen ziehen kann
Ja, es gab in den letzten Monaten etwas Change, ich würde aber sagen, dass die Stimmung dennoch gut ist.
Ja, manchmal kommt es zu Überstunden, jedoch haben wir freitags einen no Meeting Day und somit kann man freitags auch mal früher in den Feierabend oder seine Überstunden an anderen Tagen ausgleichen.
bAv, gutes Gehalt, Deutschlandticket, Urban Sports Club
Ich finde, wir könnten im Büro mehr auf Süßigkeiten verzichten ;)
In meinem Team gut. Ich würde mir wünschen, dass man Abteilungsübergreifender mehr Berührungspunkte hat.
Könnte mir keinen besseren Vorgesetzten wünschen, auch auf Geschäftsführerebene kann ich mich gut austauschen.
Ich habe alles was ich brauche, Kaffee, Frühstück, ein modernes Büro, Parkplätze und kostenfreie/vergünstigte Produkte
All-Hands Meetings sind transparent gestaltet. Manchmal muss man sich viele Informationen selbst ziehen, wenn man etwas wissen möchte, z.B. Umsatzzahlen etc. Allerdings sind die Tools leicht zu verstehen, man muss aber wie gesagt aktiv sein.
Ich habe noch nie ein Unternehmen erlebt, in dem Gleichberechtigung so natürlich ist. Ich muss mir keine Gedanken machen, was ich morgens anziehe, wenn ich ins Büro gehe, weil ich weiß, niemand würde mich schief anschauen. Danke, dass die Kollegen einem die Gleichberechtigung so einfach machen.
Ich bin unheimlich dankbar, was ich hier lernen darf und mit welchen Themen ich konfrontiert werde.
Home Office, relativ flexible Arbeitszeiten (Abhängig von Bereich und Terminkalender)
- Planerische Fehlentscheidungen auf dem Rücken der Belegschaft austragen
- Keinerlei Empathie bei Kündigungen
- Fehlbesetzungen/ Schulungsmangel im
mittleren Management
- Besinnung auf die eigenen ursprünglichen Unternehmenswerte.
- Wertschätzung der Mitarbeiter
- Realistische Ziele, vor allem um die Notwendigkeit teurer, temporärer Freelancer zu minimieren
Die Stimmung im Unternehmen hat ihr neues Tief erreicht. Teils langjährige Mitarbeiter werden unerwartet und mit sofortiger Wirkung gekündigt, so dass sie sich nichtmal selbst von ihren Teams und Kollegen verabschieden können. Meist erfährt man nur durch Zufall davon, dass
ein Kollege/Kollegin plötzlich nicht mehr im Unternehmen ist. Übergaben sind so nicht möglich und die Verbleibenden müssen sehen wer nun der neue Ansprechpartner ist.
Stark schwindend
Hoher Druck, in vielen Bereichen work overload, teils auch künstlich verursacht durch unrealistische Deadlines, die oft keinerlei Begründung haben, außer dass es die GF eben so will.
In die Nachhaltigkeit des Produkts wird tatsächlich viel investiert. Ob dies aus Überzeugung oder durch den Druck des Kundens und dem entsprechenden Marketingaspekt passiert, kann ich nicht wirklich sagen. Das Sozialbewusstsein ist wohl eher mangelhaft, wenn Mitarbeiter im Stil a la Elon Musk random gekündigt und sofort alle Unternehmenszugänge gekappt werden. Sehr enttäuschend. Da lernt man, dass man eben doch nur eine Ressource ist.
Es werden lieber externe Mitarbeiter eingestellt, statt interne zu entwickeln. Gerne aus dem persönlichen Netzwerk der Führungsebene und nicht selten auch auf Kosten bestehender Mitarbeiter. Insbesondere beim Aufbau des Tech departments gab es hier m. E. einige sehr fragwürdige Entscheidungen
Grundsätzlich gut, durch den Druck und die Angst vor Kündigung jedoch deutlich abnehmend. Im Zweifel kämpft eben doch jeder für sich selbst.
Sehr viele Manager haben keine Ahnung von moderner Mitarbeiterführung, mangels Erfahrung, Weiterbildungsangeboten aber auch Eignung. Leider fällt sowas immer zu Lasten der Teams
Wie vorangehend erwähnt mangelt es deutlich in Transparenz und Wertschätzung, während man seitens derGeschäftsführung nicht müde wird die tolle und offene Kommunikation im Unternehmen zu loben. Seitens Belegschaft, wie auch den letzten Bewertungen hier zu entnehmen ist, wird das nicht so empfunden.
Fand ich durchaus überzeugend aber der neue Trend ist das Streichen dieser Benefits. Selbst das diesjährige Sommerfest wurde gestrichen. Hier spart man meiner Meinung nach am falschen Ende, da der persönliche Austausch zu einem solchen Anlass für eine remote-First-Company von großem Wert ist.
Auch erlaubt man sich Sonderzahlungen nur an eine definierte Gruppe von Mitarbeitern zu zahlen, was, unabhängig der Fairness, laut Gleichstellungsgesetz noch nicht einmal rechtens ist. Hier macht man sich wohl die Unwissenheit der meist jungen oder auch ausländischen Mitarbeiter zu nutzen.
Oberflächlich ja, sieht man genauer hin ist das doch leider nicht immer der Fall.
Working from home and USC. Some colleagues.
Being nice at the beginning, being super fake with smiles and seeming friendly. Putting someone in a role and not even being able to take the best out of them and having no idea what to do with them.
Don't hire randomly talented people without a proper strategy on what to do with them to just fire them later. Take some leadership courses.
Gratitude not shown from the work or initiatives you have. Fear of being laid off any second randomly even if you are a great performer. No direction or clear expectations and a lot of incompetence and randomness in the strategy.
On the outside it all looks great. On the inside not reflecting it.
The most terrible thing about the company. There is no professional and relevant feedback provided, it seems like some performance rounds have to be given just for the sake of giving it without serving a purpose. You can be lead by people who don't have the proper skills to give you a complete performance review. You work as hard as you can, doing more than it's requested, just to be told later that this was actually what was expected and you don't get any raise or promotion. You get fooled by believing by continuing working hard and more you will achieve something but in the end you just get laid off.
You start with a great salary, over the time, even with the inflation, no raise happens and they put it down as something hard to get, compared to other companies that do much better.
Some people are great to work with, they have a lot of competence, talent and genuine enthusiasm to work on some projects.
Some leaders do their best and seem to be put on a difficult position where they can't help themselves much due to the upper management. In general, there should be more training on leading and watch out carefully that they have certain skills in order to provide professional and relevant feedback to their employees.
The worst part is that you can't provide performance feedback to your managers, how is this even possible? You get it from them but can't give it back, it doesn't make sense.
Not a lot of honesty, people hiding or avoiding certain topics and the next day you are just laid off.
Depends on the team you work for.
So verdient kununu Geld.
