Arbeitsatmosphäre

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.

Work-Life-Balance

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.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

see above

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

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 ...

Kollegenzusammenhalt

We have a great working spirit at air up --> doesn´t matter in which department you work!

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

We generally maintain a very respectful and collaborative way of working with each other.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

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.

Arbeitsbedingungen

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.

Kommunikation

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.

Gleichberechtigung

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!

Interessante Aufgaben

We are still a young professional company --> there are still green fields where you can include your own ideas and improve the processes.

People & Culture

Dear Reviewer,

Thank you so much for your detailed and appreciative feedback.

We are very happy to hear that you enjoy the freedom, the teamwork, and the trust which are indeed very important for us at air up. Mentioning our focus on customer value and open culture of learning from mistakes is truly encouraging.
Thank you for your constructive suggestions regarding specialization and maintaining a broad perspective. Noted and appreciated!

We value your transparency:
It's a shame that some people out there still do not believe that air up has the potential to offer them a mind-blowing flavour and hydration experience! Let's spread the word and prove them wrong 🙂!
Like for a lot of companies, the start into 2024 was a bit bumpy. Decisions have been made due to various reasons and we do understand every emotion that comes with this.
However, the People and Culture team has, and will continue to leave no stone unturned in supporting the team regarding these matters.

Regarding work-life balance, we are glad you appreciate the flexibility we offer. We believe that personal well-being is crucial, and we encourage our team members to prioritize it.

Finally, it's great to know that you find our compensation competitive and appreciate our environmental and social initiatives.

Thank you again for your feedback and for being a part of air up.
Your insights are invaluable to us!

FührungskraftHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung im Bereich IT bei air up GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

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.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

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.

Image

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.

Work-Life-Balance

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.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

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.

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

Actually, for a company that is only just 5 years old, the income is pretty competitive.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

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.

Hat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung bei air up GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

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.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

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

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Your employees are incredibly unhappy and you're doing nothing to fix that

Work-Life-Balance

They do not care about how many hours you have worked and it is not recorded

Karriere/Weiterbildung

There is no career progression. The only team that gets promoted is the Strategy team

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

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.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

They put a big focus on sustainability, until profits started to be affected, then they just stopped focusing on sustainability

With reference to the changed review of 20.03.2024

Dear air uppie,

thank you for taking the time to update your previous review. It's sad to read that you don't seem to be happy with us any more. We would like to comment on the points you mentioned.

You are right, our founders were quite young when air up was brought to life. We would like to add though:
a) without their ingenuity and determination, we wouldn't be here.
b) they have been working on air up for more than 6 years. We believe they have experienced and learned more than many of us in our careers so far.
c) Over the last 2 years, various decisions have been taken to expand the exec board in order to achieve a strategic diversity of seniority and experience.

To your point about compensation, ensuring equality and fairness across our team is a top priority for us. We have invested significant effort into reviewing salary benchmarks to guide our decisions in this regard.

We are really sorry to hear that you feel like only one team get's promotions. We are actually really proud of the 81 employees that received a salary increase across the company and 24 of these increases were connected to a promotion in the last performance round.

We would like to seek an open exchange with you to discuss your concerns relating to recent redundancies and workers council. At this point, we cannot agree with your statements and would like to understand this mismatch, only if you are willing to do so of course.

Thank you again for your feedback, we will definitely work on the topics you have raised and again, we would love to have an open dialogue with you, feel free to reach out to your manager or our P&C team whenever you want.

Your People & Culture Team

With reference to the review which was originally created in June 2023

Dear air uppie,

thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review. We appreciate your feedback and take all comments seriously. Nonetheless, we would like to comment on some points of your review.

Firstly, we are really happy to read that you feel good at air up. We love our new office space as much as you do and are very committed to provide a workplace that is inclusive and respectful to all employees. It makes us really proud that we were able to hire such a diverse team as you mentioned.
To your point: "it would be good to see more non-Germans promoted to middle and upper management". We checked the most recent numbers and can proudly say that ~55% of our leadership team is non-German. As mentioned above, we give all employees regardless of gender, age, nationality, sexual orientation etc. equal opportunities to grow and succeed.

We are sorry to hear that you don't have transparency about our investors. May we point you in the direction of our internal knowledge management tool or recommend to reach out directly to our Investor Relations Team. Unfortunately, we cannot share the address of specific investors with you ;)

You further write about leavers and a high turnover rate.
We do keep a close eye on this and are happy to report that it is completely within industry standards for a company our size/age. In regard to the names of the people leaving: we proactively communicate each leaver with all of our Managers. We will raise it to the group that they need to communicate it in the respective teams to ensure the information reaches every single one of us.

In case you´d like to share anything else or simply want to talk, please reach out to your HR Business Partner. Again, thank you for staying true to our HONESTY value and sharing your opinion with us.

Kommunikation

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.

Gleichberechtigung

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.

Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung bei air up GmbH in München gearbeitet.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Home Office, relativ flexible Arbeitszeiten (Abhängig von Bereich und Terminkalender)

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

- Planerische Fehlentscheidungen auf dem Rücken der Belegschaft austragen
- Keinerlei Empathie bei Kündigungen
- Fehlbesetzungen/ Schulungsmangel im
mittleren Management

Verbesserungsvorschläge

- Besinnung auf die eigenen ursprünglichen Unternehmenswerte.
- Wertschätzung der Mitarbeiter
- Realistische Ziele, vor allem um die Notwendigkeit teurer, temporärer Freelancer zu minimieren

Arbeitsatmosphäre

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.

Image

Stark schwindend

Work-Life-Balance

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.

Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein

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.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

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

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Grundsätzlich gut, durch den Druck und die Angst vor Kündigung jedoch deutlich abnehmend. Im Zweifel kämpft eben doch jeder für sich selbst.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

Sehr viele Manager haben keine Ahnung von moderner Mitarbeiterführung, mangels Erfahrung, Weiterbildungsangeboten aber auch Eignung. Leider fällt sowas immer zu Lasten der Teams

Kommunikation

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.

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

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.

Gleichberechtigung

Oberflächlich ja, sieht man genauer hin ist das doch leider nicht immer der Fall.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Working from home and USC. Some colleagues.

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

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.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

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.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

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.

Image

On the outside it all looks great. On the inside not reflecting it.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

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.

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

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.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

Some people are great to work with, they have a lot of competence, talent and genuine enthusiasm to work on some projects.

Vorgesetztenverhalten

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.

Kommunikation

Not a lot of honesty, people hiding or avoiding certain topics and the next day you are just laid off.

Remote work, great colleagues

Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich

Not acting according their own values anymore. On your career page you say,
that your employees are your most precious capital. It really does not feel like that anymore.

Verbesserungsvorschläge

Appreciate your employees and be respectful, even if you have to lay off people. Look more inside to find talents, instead of hiring your management buddies. Make sure team leads are trained as such. Stop spending money like a big player, and then go nuts after a view underperforming months. We are still a scale up.

Arbeitsatmosphäre

The spirit within the company changed drastically in the last two years. They tried to be hip and fancy, but this did not hold for long. Now, benefits get killed again and plenty of people get layed off. It does not feel like an appreciative and safe place to work anymore.

Image

Shiny on the outside, but it stops there…

Work-Life-Balance

The pressure is extremely high, and although each and everyone is going above and beyond to meet the expectations, it is never rewarded. In every all hands meeting, we are just told, that it is only on us, to improve the current performance. It is never talked about the poor management decisions, that also brought us into this situation in the first place. Shit happens and you learn from your mistakes, but the blame game, especially from the C-level, is big and very demotivating.

Karriere/Weiterbildung

They rather higher someone new from there awesome „network“ instead of supporting and developing people that are already doing this job for years. We have a yearly training budget, which just was put on hold.

Gehalt/Sozialleistungen

They just introduced carrier lathers with salary ranges per function. They also support a pension plan and sport clubs etc. Let‘s see if there will be any cuts on this too.
We did not get any inflation support payments, like many other companies did, based on the tax free payments the government offered.

Kollegenzusammenhalt

There are amazing people working for air up and it is always very collaborative to work with peers. I never worked in a company before, were the intrinsic motivation and passion of employees was so high.
Unfortunately, this great work spirit is heavily impacted by the awful decisions and actions from the middle, but especially upper management.

Umgang mit älteren Kollegen

Generally a very young team, amongst all departments, but I never experienced any difference in how older colleagues are treated

Vorgesetztenverhalten

This depends a lot on the team. There are great leaders, such that try their best but just miss some experience and others, that are just not leaders at all. They should train their managers and define some standards and guidelines. Generally speaking, micromanagement is big at air up, and got way worse in the last two years.

Kommunikation

There is a lot of communication going on, and management was always praising them self for their great transparency. This might have been the case as long as everything was good. As numbers are not as good as expected, they are quick to cut their open communication amongst all teamies. Especially the way how they communicate, misses the respect for the people working for air up and giving their all since many years. People just get a random call, where they are told that they are released, and they are logged off all company systems right after. You don’t even have the chance to say bye to your colleagues.

Interessante Aufgaben

In theory, there a many very interesting and challenging positions at air up. With the level of micromanagement we face from managers, there unfortunately is not much left. But of course you are still responsible in case of a *uck up, although your manager took all the decisions for you

Dear air uppie,

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We genuinely appreciate your perspective and take your concerns seriously.

On behalf of the P&C department, we would like to emphasize, that creating a work environment where our teamies feel valued and have opportunities for personal and professional development is indeed a top priority for us.

With that being said, we would like to address the points that you've mentioned:

We acknowledge your concerns regarding new hires: Fostering a culture of growth and development within our organization is very important to us. Please rest assured that we are always dedicated to considering both internal and external opportunities to ensuring the right decision - for our teams but also for our new teamies. This is the utmost priority for our Recruiting team.

Additionally, we do understand that you have concerns regarding matters influenced by our leadership. Your differentiated opinion is crucial to us, and we want to assure you that maintaining transparency within our company is a core goal of our board. Transparency at air up, extends beyond mere numerical honesty; it involves providing context for ongoing developments, whether they be successes or challenges.
We strongly believe in fostering an environment where our teams and their ideas are not steered by higher-level managers. Instead, we encourage freedom and ownership, allowing our teamies the space to develop their best ideas based on their expertise to tackle challenges or maintain success.

We do understand that you don't feel that degree of freedom, which could lead to the feeling of pressure. We would like to reassure you that your hard work and dedication do not go unnoticed. It's concerning to hear that you feel your efforts are not being adequately recognized or rewarded. Employee recognition and appreciation are fundamental aspects of our company culture.

To address your concerns effectively, we encourage you to have an open conversation with your manager or your Business Partner. We would like to hear more about your concerns to find solutions that suit your needs and ensure a healthy work-life balance.


Thank you again and we wish you all the best,

Dear air uppie,

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Based on what you've mentioned, we understand how you perceive the situation and would like to address some key aspects you mentioned.

Due to the nature of our work, which involves a physical product, certain departments require regular access to the office for essential tools and project necessities. Recognizing this, significant efforts were made during the setup of our new office to guarantee convenient resource access for all of our teamies.
But our commitment doesn't stop there. We consistently strive for a collaborative atmosphere, a task overseen by our Spaces team. Among their responsibilities is ensuring that our teamies feel valued and enabled to achieve their goals with the support of what is offered in our office hub.
This includes our mutual respect, as we place emphasis on reliability when it comes to meetings. However, outside of that, there are no rigid working hours that teamies are required to adhere to. We strongly believe in fostering our flexible and accommodating work environment.

We also recognize that strong leadership is essential for creating such a positive and productive workplace culture.
Therefore, we are dedicated to provide our leaders with the necessary training and support to help them excel in their roles. We encourage open and transparent communication between managers and teamies to address any concerns and ensure that everyone feels heard and valued.
Hence, your input is very important for us and that's why we would like to encourage you to have an open conversation with your manager or HR Business Partner. This will provide us with a more comprehensive understanding of your concerns and allow us to address them more effectively.

Thank you and we are looking forward to hearing from you,
Your air up P&C team
