Pros

Positive people who enjoy working together. Ambitious drive from leadership. Interesting technology. Autonomous work. Fun atmosphere. Relaxed work environment. No micromanagement. Flat organization implementing structure for growth. People genuinely like being around one another.

Cons

Small company (might be a positive for some). Have not quite made the jump to being international (but plan to do so). Not located in City Center (can be a positive).

Pros

If you're C-level you get a free Tesla, bunch of paid lunches and great salaries

Cons

Rocker is one of those companies were nothing ever is ever done to make things more interesting for the employees. Sure there is a Monday breakfast, but it consists of a piece of Crispbread and a glass of juice. The flow of information is kept minimal and it is almost as if HR and management takes pleasure in keeping people in the dark. The manager to employee ratio is also obscene with less than two employees pre managers in some departments. This results in extreme micromanagement The CEO is a powerless figurehead put in place by the main investors and the team is full of, with a few exceptions, big business folks who don't understand how to run a startup. The team has had poor retention and most people quit around the one year mark

Thank you for your feedback, though we are really sad to hear you have had a negative experience. We are a small but growing company and everyone in our team is of great importance to us. Nevertheless, we work hard to create the best possible conditions and experience for every member of our Rocker team, and therefore, we do not agree with the image of the company that you are trying to portray. We can always improve, and your feedback is valuable to help us understand how we can evolve as a company. Our door is always open if you would like to discuss this with us directly.
