Pros

Good perks and nice office

Cons

My experience with Personio was really negative: all the processes were extremely complicated (to do simples and basics tasks you had to waste hours of time since the technology in place was bad). The training is too long (3 months) and you don’t have actual time to start working, but the probation period is only 4 months - so they don’t give proper time to let people start and learn. Management was bad too unfortunately in my case (no experience in the field and not able to provide help or support). They don’t allow people being sick and recovering plus they are not transparent with the decisions, which it should be their core value.

Hello, thank you for your feedback, we appreciate that you took the time to share your feedback with us. We’re sorry to hear that your experience at Personio hasn’t been the best. We always want to provide everyone with an outstanding people experience, so we do take your input very seriously. We understand that a 3 month long onboarding process is quite extensive, but we want to be sure that all our Personios in customer-facing roles are well prepped and ready to feel confident in their position and provide our customers with a great experience. The other points you raised regarding lack of support and sick-leave are very concerning to us. We want every employee to feel supported and be able to get the help they need, and we also never want anyone to work or feel the pressure of needing to work, when they aren’t well. We’d really appreciate it if you would contact us and share more details on your experience, and we will look into this internally at the same time. You can reach out at glassdoor@personio.de. Thank you! Best regards, Marielle, Director Customer Success

Pros

Collaborative Supportive Friendly Engaging Rewarding

Cons

Personio offers many benefits, although some are missing if compared with other similar companies. One is that health insurance doesn't currently cover family members, which can be a limitation for employees with families. Some processes can be inconsistent, although this lack of strict processes may also be a positive aspect for some individuals.
