Great place to work with great people - Operations Manager Grabr Employee Review

I’ve worked for Grabr for a few years now and I can literally say that working here changed my life. It might seem a bit extreme, but it actually has. And I’ll explain why. Growth within: I started as an intern and I managed to be promoted several times throughout the years. Since the very beginning I always felt I was heard and valued. I had access to every possible resource we had and had the liberty to develop myself as much as I wanted. You can speak freely and know you will be heard. You can join any discussion or meeting you are interested in, even if you don’t want to participate. You can just watch and listen to the people who surround you and learn a great deal from them. I’ve seen other colleagues go from internships to management roles as well, not only myself . But of course, don’t take anything for granted. The vision: The founders have always led the team towards whatever was needed to help the company grow while keeping our values and vision of the company. I think one of the biggest pros of working at Grabr is that you are working to build something that will really IMPACT the world and help millions of people around the globe get what they need, even if they didn’t have access to it in the past, while helping travelers save money on their trips by connecting these 2 entities and letting the magic happen. Results-oriented: Grabr is a data-driven company that will value you for your results, meaning you can easily find your balance between your personal and professional life as long as you prove yourself to be committed and bring results and effort to the table. Again, nothing is taken for granted but if you deliver, you will get rewarded.

The challenge of being a global team: Being a global travel company is indeed cool, but it comes with some drawbacks: time zones, cultures, communications, etc. Nothing new under the sun but this is probably one of the biggest challenges that Grabr faced in the past. We have team members all around the world and it was sometimes hard to get the flow across departments. Luckily throughout the past year at Grabr, the founders Daria and Artem, have made an enormous effort by gathering all of us many times under one roof. Things have really changed since then and we have become a stronger and more united team after these in-person meetings. Long story short, there is no question that Grabr is a top notch company and a wonderful place to work. It will surely fulfill all your career goals and more.

Grabr is a fast growing company, so our employees have a change to grow together. We have a very diverse team, from all over the world, so it is amazing to connect and know our team members from Russia, Canada, Brazil, Spain, Argentina, etc. It is a lot to learn and know that even we all being all over the world, we have a great connection to make the business work and grow so fast. Team members are motivated people urging to make the business grow fast. Opportunity to travel to other countries. As we are still a startup, people need to wear many hats, which makes the work more interesting and there is always a learning curve. Also, good life balance between work and personal life.

As many startups, decisions are done super fast, so need to be prepared for a fast changing environment.
