Pluspunten

In previous years I would’ve said the people, but unfortunately none come to mind now.

Minpunten

What once was a ‘good’ (I use that term loosely) company, has since become an embarrassment. I didn’t intend on writing a review but after seeing that a member of the leadership team has recently posted their own review, I would feel genuinely bad if someone naively joined this company on the basis of that post. Unfortunately, these things speak for themselves and if you have to write Glassdoor reviews about your own company then you probably haven’t managed to produce the successful company culture that you claim to have created. To clear up some of the things a member of the leadership team has claimed in the earlier glassdoor review: - SaaS seemed like a good idea in theory, but unfortunately seems to be neither possible nor what clients want. - The company offers ‘big freedom’ but only if it aligns exactly with what the CEO wants, otherwise you will be out the door. - ‘Spontaneous surprises’ are most likely to be spontaneous redundancies when the management once again change company direction (if you are looking for job security this probably isn’t the company for you). - Unfortunately, excusing continual company mistakes on being a ‘start-up’ doesn’t exactly work when the company is 9 years old (I wouldn’t expect to be informed about company problems, communication seems to be non-existent at this company).

Pluspunten

Once you become acquainted with the system and how everything works, your everyday work quickly becomes very interesting and I genuinely really look forwards to work. Furthermore, the prospect of internal progression is exciting in such a rapidly growing company is hugely exciting to me, and while I've only been here a short time, I'm already itching to take on more responsibility and do more. The independence and trust given to me by my line managers are really great to feel; its very empowering to feel that your managers aren't constantly peering over your shoulders. Flexible remote working is a huge plus as well I also want to mention that the workplace culture is probably the best I've ever been a part of, the small team and open lines of communication from top to bottom make the whole company feel more like a family than anything else, and also everyone here is absolutely lovely and enthusiastic about work!

Minpunten

I think working here requires a certain type of person insofar as that, as with any start up, you will need to be flexible and adaptable, which for me is ideal, but i am aware that's not everyone's cup of tea. I can't really think of many cons per se, and every minor con I can think of I'm aware things are being worked on to improve them, so I'm not sure how much value there is in mentioning things like its been just over 3 months and I've not met my colleagues in person yet when I'm meeting them all next week.

Pluspunten

- great belief in building the best & unique product - clients love what we do and we have a very good relationship with them - its a pleasure to work with biggest and most successful companies, like: Google, Vodafone, AWS, Dassault, Intel etc - big freedom but also a big responsibility - since the company transitioned to SaaS, there is huge growth potential, not only in the space of ABM, data & insights but also enterprise collaboration... we are not afraid to explore, iterate and the business is very ux-oriented - delicious oat milk coffee :) - we play sports together: squash, swimming, cycling, pilates - we have many spontaneous surprises going on - we have a new team, full of experience and positive energy - CEO is very open to ideas and his biggest advantage is that he wants to make everyone successful around him

Minpunten

- transition to SaaS was very tough, the change affected temporarily the morale, and Unrival in order to move from full service business had to let many people go at some point, however it was necessary and the new team looks forward to the great future - we still need to establish new practices and tools, Unrival now feels a bit like a new start-up which is exciting but not fully organized yet - probably like every start-up we made some mistakes, but luckily we are quick lerners
