Statista

Gehalt

The wage is definitely only average at best, but at least there are quick opportunities for career advancement.

As previously mentioned, Statista offers salaries that are well below the market average. The company's business model for the Hamburg HQ seems to focus on hiring mostly non-European graduates, offering them very low salaries. These employees are then heavily exploited, with a constant cycle of hiring new batches of non-European graduates once the previous ones leave. This approach has been openly explained to me by multiple lower-level managers.

Due to the low compensation, many talented individuals don’t even consider Statista as a viable employer, and motivated employees often leave quickly to secure 20%-40% higher salaries at other companies.

However, Statista is currently making an effort to analyze their salary grids, which is a positive step. Hopefully, this will lead to a realization of the need to offer more competitive salaries to attract and retain talented and motivated employees.

Social benefits at Statista are somewhat decent, with discounts on various products (such as a 20% discount on gym memberships) and a reduced rate for the German Public Transport ticket (Deutschlandticket).

Große Unterschiede zwischen den einzelnen Bereichen.

Low low salaries

Salaries are mediocre and efforts to negotiate better pay are often met with resistance and threats from the new leadership.

The salary is below market level and has been so for a long time. The inflation crisis following the pandemic made this worse, with many colleagues living paycheck to paycheck, as the offices are in two of the most expensive cities in Germany. Salary progression is super slow and they'll find any excuse to not have to make adjustments, while always promising that elusive day when they will raise salaries to market levels.
