Not what I expected

Pros

Culture is good, most of people are nice

Cons

Really long and complicated onboarding (3 months), in general processes are not well structured and you waste so much time just for basic stuff. Product is not compliant with markets outside Germany and for some roles that can be a big problem. Support from management was really poor too.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re experience at Personio hasn’t been what you expected! You’re right, our onboarding process is quite in-depth, and is based on the feedback we’ve received from numerous past new joiners. We want to ensure that each new Personio is set up for success from day one and can hit the ground running in their role. We also want to make sure that our core values are really lived on a day-to-day basis and that each of our people feels supported. This is why your feedback is important to us, and we will use it as an opportunity to improve moving forward. If you wish to talk about your experience in more details, feel free to reach out to me at Cassandra.Hoermann@personio.de

Pros

Agile, great CEO, great culture, competitive salary, great brand and product.

Cons

Low market awareness outside of Germany, frequent change which isn't for everyone, too many long tenured employees who are set in their ways and don't bring fresh ideas and who complain about everything.
