Zalando Reviews

Pros

When working at Zalando you have the possibility to learn and grow with a real hands on experience. You are responsible and owner of your tasks and able to cooperate with competent people to reach common clear company goals.

Advice to Management

Importance should be given also to processes to be respected in the long run as well as company vision to avoid continuous ups and downs and capitalize in the long run thanks to concreteness and constancy in all company aspects.

Pros

The company has a great work environment, with awesome and smart people surrounding you. The global culture is something that I love.
The flexibility to make the life easier, I have to work, study, workout and so on.
The company also provided good spaces for having lunch, free drinks and freed fruits.
Most of the offices are located on the East Side Gallery, a good place to work.

Advice to Management

Try to get more benchmarks and apply to the company, because trying to reinvent the wheel usually doesn't bring good results.

Pros

The opportunities at Zalando are endless. Its truly a great company. I stayed here for 4 years and had 3 opportunties here to help the business to achieve hiring goals across 3 teams, so saw many different sides to the business and grow enormously from this.

Zalando was high growth for nearly the whole time I was there and that's an exciting, fun, dynamic, fast paced place mixed with chaos.

Zalando is a company that has faults but its also one that recognises its shortcomings and looks to fix them. I love that spirit and honesty.

Personally, I've had great leaders in my time here who've supported my passions and helped me to better myself and adapt to new situations.

The thing I will miss the most is the people. Working in teams was awesome there. I got to learn from so many talents. Wow. Everyone was so helpful all the way throughout the company and it kind of feels bittersweet to leave as it was like a home from home.

A chaotic, fast paced, but lovable home :)

Advice to Management

I would love to see more focus on internal hiring and promotions. We have some amazing talents at Zalando but the process was not so clear. Level up the experience for internals as much as we did for external hires.

Develop more leaders

Develop more Graduates (give back to the industry rather than harvest from other companies)

More diversity at leadership level! Its a very international and diverse company which I love, but it feels its not represented at the top amongst senior leaders.
