Strong, supportive culture united by the shared drive for results
Arbeitsatmosphäre
The company has a high-performance culture that emphasizes results and teamwork. It's a fast-paced environment where everyone has intrinsic drive and strives for excellence, which is really motivating. Leadership is transparent and approachable, trying to creating an environment where everyone feels valued and achievements are celebrated.
Kommunikation
Regular updates through All Hands and team meetings ensure everyone is informed and aligned on key priorities. Multiple formats and channels (Engagement surveys, structured bi-annual performance cycles, anonymous feedback channels, etc.) invite to provide regular feedback.
One thing to further improve is cross-departmental alignment.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Colleagues are highly supportive and go out of their way to help each other succeed, making teamwork feel natural and rewarding. Beyond work, many team members enjoy connecting socially, often meeting up for activities outside of work. It really creates a positive and fun work environment and the strong connections that are built is one of the greatest strengths of the company, imo.
Work-Life-Balance
The company respects personal time, has a pretty flexible set up regarding working hours, PTO is always approved. In busy periods some overtime may be required, as in any start up I guess.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
In my view, all managers are approachable and supportive. I can only speak for my manager, when it comes to more detailed review here. My manager genuinely cares about his employees’ well-being and often checks in on how things are going, both professionally and personally. While performance expectations are ambitious, (for me) they’re matched by the encouragement, guidance, and trust that he offers.
Interessante Aufgaben
From day one, I was given a high degree of autonomy and responsibility, which I appreciate. There’s a strong emphasis on ownership, with everyone encouraged to take initiative and drive their own projects forward. The expectation is that everyone contributes with an all-hands attitude, which I personally think is the best approach for a company this stage and size.
Gleichberechtigung
Career opportunities are based on clear, transparent criteria. It is clear that what counts is performance & drive, not any personal characteristics.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
We do not really have many much older colleagues, but I think that is mostly based on the type of start up environment not because they are purposely not hired.
Arbeitsbedingungen
I love our office. It is super central, modern and well equipped. Also everyone can choose their hardware preferences (i.e. Macbook) when they start.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
This is not really the focus of our business, so not sure what to say.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
My salary is competitive, all employees receive shares and for it's size benefits are also generous (Urban Sports, BVG, free meals etc.)
Image
charles is well known in the market, a pioneer. We have a really cool brand and lots of cool logos signed.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Again, I have a clear career path with well-defined expectations and requirements, and my manager actively supports me in working towards these goals. Lots of learning is done by coaching but there is also external trainings offered (i.e. Leadership, Sales, Communication etc.)
