good journey - Publisher Management Opinary Employee Review

I was hired as the first NYC based sales representative. The onboarding process was by far the most incredible and informational process I've ever been through with a company. They truly define a team mentality while bringing onboard new hires. My first two weeks I flew to spend at the Berlin headquarters. Upon returning to the New York office I was beyond equipped to conduct my daily responsibilities. Past the onboarding process, their ability to put together a group of people who not only work well together but truly compliment each other's skills. The group of founders says in the beginning that they like to invest in their employees. They mean this 10,000% sincerely. Both in your personal life and professional life, they want to empower you to be the best possible version of your self. Absolutely fantastic team.

Growing pains. With a growth stage company, it was tough to sometimes work with other teams based in different markets due to time differences and scheduling issues.

- the entire team is fantastic - nice office, focus on a work-life balance, team drinks, team lunch - lots of autonomy, respect, room to grow and space to run with ideas - interesting product and product space (journalism, adtech) - partnership with lots of respectable publishers and brands throughout germany and the rest of the world - strong focus on goals - millions of users daily - data driven approach to development, albeit performed less effectively some times

- hierarchies in product team have been heightened, less do-ers and more say-ers - a gap emerged in the recent year to the C-levels - the atmosphere changed slightly. e.g. announcing people leaving, investment - too much respect and confidence in employees led to the company being taken advantage of by certain individuals - some recent hires I felt were hired hastily and should have been tested more thoroughly and with the help of the wider team - drop in passion in the wider team
