Limited recommendation, in some situations it may make sense to work here. No need for high expectations.
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
People, diversity, solidarity with employees during the corona period, good coffee!
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
My evaluation may look negative at first glance. At this point I would like to emphasize that I did not decide to invest this time to annoy anybody but to encourage a rethinking in favor of my former colleagues.
Cheers!
Verbesserungsvorschläge
You have so much potential in your teams. Trust in the abilities of your people and start giving away responsibility. Start thinking long term and promote people who perform on KPIs, not the ones you like the most. Otherwise you will not be able to keep the mood positive and work in the interest of the company
Arbeitsatmosphäre
A really positive aspect at Unicorn are the employees, most of whom are young, open-minded and tolerant. So there is a lot of diversity, and by large good manners. In my team we got along great and we also had a good relationship outside work. However, the general atmosphere in the entire company became more and more tense and critical over time, as employees were not involved in decision-making processes and were not given opportunities for development.
Kommunikation
Rigid hierarchies, insufficient transparency in decision-making processes, top-down communication.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
As mentioned above, there is good collegial cooperation within the teams. Unfortunately, there is lots of gossip between some of the teams.
Work-Life-Balance
Flexible work and home office is possible for most of the employees.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
I have often found the behaviour of superiors questionable. There have been individual cases in which managers have behaved politically incorrect and have tried to excuse it with a wink. Suggestions from employees were rarely taken seriously, and decisions that were made usually served the investors and not the employees. There were almost no employee discussions so that almost all of my colleagues did not feel encouraged. This also meant that many of them only stayed at Unicorn for a relatively short time and then took advantage of promotion opportunities in other companies.
Interessante Aufgaben
Even if the work in sales was a bit monotonous at times, I had the opportunity to work in an interesting start-up environment
Gleichberechtigung
In General Unicorn has an open and diverse approach for all people, but there were some exceptions where executives
expressed themselves without any sensitivity for gender, sexuality and equality.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Didn't see any issues here
Arbeitsbedingungen
The "low" price charged for the product is passed on one-to-one to the employees. Payment is below the industry average. This may also be due to the fact that the company is not oriented towards tariffs. In addition, there is no supervisory board. Benefits are flatrate coffee and a BVG ticket for those employees who are working at different locations
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
awareness of environmental and social issues exists as a corporate image, but is not actually lived
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Below the industry average. It is still enough for job starters and people looking for a temporary job
Image
To this day I have not understood what the brand core values are and what the vision of the company is. Recently, however, I have noticed that this problem is being addressed and that the branding is improving
Karriere/Weiterbildung
No one in this company is interested in making careers possible, so I would advise against joining here after graduation
