Pluspunten

Generally a fantastic team that want to do their best Employees often form friendships due to hiring good fits A genuinely interesting industry to work in Opportunities to contribute ideas to the architecture The chance to work with some cutting edge technology Autonomous working most of the time (although some micromanagement occurs) Attempts to improve social aspects

Minpunten

The management team have: been condescending and belittling to employees lost their temper and shouted at employees in meetings deliberately pushed people out through restructuring hired friends and protected them when complaints were made shifted blame for negative events or mistakes while taking credit for the positives Other negatives: RTO under the guise of collaboration, even though the offices lack desks and meeting spaces Constant stream of employees (and knowledge) leaving the company employee morale completely drained and management are either blind to it or don’t care enough to do anything to address it disorganised plan as to what the product even is, constantly pivoting with no regard to how that affects the existing codebase

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review. We appreciate that you highlighted several positives about your experience , including the strength of the team, the interesting industry, opportunities to work with new technology, and the collaborative culture we aim to build. We agree that our people are our greatest asset, and we’re proud that many employees form strong professional and personal relationships here. We’re genuinely disappointed to read the concerns you’ve raised. The behaviours you describe regarding management do not reflect our values or the standards we expect from our leaders. We take allegations of disrespectful communication, favouritism, or unprofessional conduct extremely seriously. Any feedback of this nature is reviewed internally and addressed through formal channels. At the same time, we want to provide some broader context. We regularly measure employee engagement and sentiment through anonymous surveys. Our most recent eNPS score was 19, which is above industry benchmarks and reflects that, overall, employee feedback about the company and leadership is positive. That doesn’t mean every individual experience is perfect, but it does help us understand that the picture is more balanced than a single review can capture. Regarding return-to-office and workplace changes: like many companies, we continue to evaluate how to best support collaboration while also providing flexibility. We recognise that transitions can be frustrating, and we recently improved our office facilities, meeting spaces, and hybrid working arrangements based on employee input. We also acknowledge that periods of rapid growth and product evolution can feel disruptive. Our industry moves quickly, and we are continually refining our strategy to ensure long-term success. We understand that frequent change can be challenging, and we are focused on improving communication and planning so teams have greater clarity and stability. We are always open to hearing specific, constructive feedback. If you would be willing to share more detail about your experiences, we would genuinely welcome a confidential conversation so that concerns can be properly reviewed and addressed. You can contact us directly at people@yapily.com Thank you again for sharing your perspective. Feedback, both positive and critical, is essential to helping us improve.

I spent nearly 4 years at Yapily and having left over a month ago, I've finally had time to reflect on my experience working there. As a function of my role, I worked with people across a number of teams including engineering, product, pre-sales, strategy and leadership. It's clear that everyone has deep passion, and is tied into the collective mission. It was amazing to see everyone rallying together when we needed to think of creative approaches or overcome challenges. Yapily has a strong no-ego culture. Yapily is in an incredibly unique position with its product-market fit and commitment to the highest engineering standards, and so as a sales person I was always able to stand confidently behind the product and thus bring creativity to my stakeholder engagement. Managers and leadership are always there to support, and particularly in my last year working closely with the senior leadership team I learnt an inordinate amount and grew as a professional in so many ways. I miss the team and will continue cheering Yapily on from the sidelines!

Minpunten

As with any fast-growing company, there is a pressure to perform and work to the highest standard. This can be a bit daunting in the moment, but on reflection it really helped me grow as a person and I think has set me up well for my new role.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t reflect the culture we work hard to create. We take comments about leadership and culture very seriously. While no organisation is perfect, we continually seek honest input from our team so we can improve. One of the ways we measure this is through our employee engagement surveys. Our most recent eNPS score was 19, which is well above industry benchmarks and reflects strong overall sentiment from our people. This tells us that, for the majority of employees, the experience here is positive and improving. That said, we recognise that individual experiences can vary, and feedback like yours helps us identify areas where we can do better. Over the past year we have invested significantly in leadership development, communication, and employee support programs to ensure that managers have the tools they need and that employees feel heard and valued. If you’re open to it, we would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your specific concerns so we can address them directly. You can reach us confidentially at people@yapily.com so we can better understand your experience. We appreciate all feedback, positive and critical, because it helps us continue building the kind of workplace we want to be. Thank you again for sharing your perspective.
