Hard to imagine a better employer (from my perspective)
Arbeitsatmosphäre
From my perspective, the organization has good measures in place to allow focus time. The office might get a bit noisy sometimes. Nevertheless, working from home works great.
Sometimes I'm a bit confused how envelio managed to gather so many smart people. It's really an honor to work with those.
Kommunikation
One of the most striking features for me was the communication between departments and teams. It's easy to get in touch with everybody and the communication is always polite and respectful.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
envelians do an excellent job here. Hanging out together during lunch or outside of work, in a pure opt-in style. Any company event has a very positive spirit.
Work-Life-Balance
The people at envelio are highly motivated, which sometimes leads to responses and actions out of the usual working hours. However, we don't have a hustle culture and it's strictly communicated by the management that this is not requested behavior.
I really feel like working and living at envelio blends together quite nicely.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
I feel at the center of my discussions with my manager. In general engineering managers at envelio are good role models.
Interessante Aufgaben
For me envelio provides a broad set of interesting and challenging tasks. I also like that its not a machine learning venture but based on solid physics. In my perception, we are widening this task-space step by step, as the product grows.
Gleichberechtigung
From my perspective we are quite reflected on that and are doing good here. While having a lot of male developers, I didn't sense any bad male attitudes. But would be interesting to see what the non-white, non-male, non-electrical engineers think about that.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Hard to evaluate, I would guess the question targets 50+. To my knowledge all employees are younger. Maybe closely related: For me it feels like we've got a quite low churn rate. At least I experienced more churn in previous companies. Will be interesting to see if any of us stays there till 50+ :D
Arbeitsbedingungen
Equipment is great. Standing desks in the office. Great meeting rooms for such a small company.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
We've got a strong spirit that we support the energy transition.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
I don't have insights in other's salaries. I guess we are paying fine, but if you're going purely for the money, I guess there are easier options in a price/quantity sense. The supported pension plan lacks a bit of financial support with only 15% subsidy. But I don't like private pension schemes anyways. At the same time, the mobility premium for public transport, bikes or e-mobility is a kicker!
Image
I would be surprised if a lot of people outside the energy sector have deep feelings about envelio. But for me, I'll always summarize it as: It's much better than I've even hoped for before switching.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
envelio has a transparent and somewhat metrics-based promotion scheme, which allows for tech and leadership carriers (in the engineering department). There are institutions for continuous learning.
