Bewertungen für GetYourGuide

Pros

.Great culture, wonderful colleagues .Management is transparent and careful taking decisions, recently big tech giants have beedn downsizing their workforce after having hired like crazy, GYG instead was always very carefull with excessive growth specially when it comes to recruitment. .Beautiful office set up, we get breakfast and lunch weekly, drinks, snaks, its a cozy place to work at .Development budget and great carreer opportunities, you meet lots of people who have been in GYG for years and have grow or moved cross teams. . Very fair compensation for Berlin standards .Amazing product, who doesnt love travel? as employees we get vouchers and generous discounts for activites .Flexibility; we can work from home as well at the office, we have a hybrid work culture and we also get some time for remote work .GYG parties, i almost forget to mention that we have the most fun parties at GYG.

More focus on DEI and mental healh, those industries need specific teams to work on moving forward, with the future of work, all of the changes that happened in the past 2 years, in order to keep up with the market and atract the best talents those issues are invaluable

Pros

GetYourGuide has been a great place to work with a vibrant and positive culture. It's very clear that maintaining and evolving a positive culture is a top priority for both leadership teams and everyone in the company. The company works hard to create transparency and empower employees to make the most positive impacts they can make. There's a huge investment in ensuring that the environment is welcoming and inclusive for all and there's great joy in coming together as colleagues and really seeing both how diverse the group of individuals are and how passionate and committed they are to the overall work we are doing.

Kontras

There's also a lot of ownership given to employees (which can be a good thing) but can sometimes mean that as an individual you are taking on a lot (with the ability to make a big impact = but also the ability to get a bit wrapped up in your work).

Pros

- Good Environment to learn new skills & experiment - Great Work colleagues - amenities in Office are welcomed - Make an active effort for diversity

Kontras

- Low wages compared to other start-ups and companies in Berlin - Increasing Workload with no pay incrase - Lack of career progression, especially in their customer-care department. - 6 Monthly review cycle the only time you can get a pay-rise - 'Optional' Hybrid work is actually mandatory office days.

Pros

I have worked at GYG for over 10 months and my experience was amazing. Salary: 4/5 Fairness : 4/5 Atmosphere : 5/5

Kontras

Opportunity to grow in the company is minimal.

Pros

Scale-up with high level of professionalism, yet flexibility and incredible speed. Strong company culture, great colleagues and amazing office space. Challenging tasks and project and trust in people to tackle big topics that have impact.

Kontras

Can be overwhelming. This is not for people who want to take it easy.

Pros

Good benefits, nice product and international team.

Kontras

The communication is a very big issue.

Pros

- Ambitious company, awesome industry - Open feedback culture - Extremely pragmatic senior management, managed finances during the covid pandemic really well whilst generating no revenue - Fast paced, tech culture - Advanced Perf Marketing Team - Amazing colleagues, +70 nationalities, working with very bright and driven people, great culture - Many growth opportinities & budget for learning & development

Kontras

- There is always a lot of work, the pressure never really stops, key to sucess is to know how to prioritise and enforce work life balance for yourself. The company won't do it for you - Female leadership is still a minority in the company, but they are working hard to bridge the gap

Pros

Friendly colleagues and free GYG vouchers

Kontras

Decent pay as a work student

Pros

- good team members - yearly budget for office supplies - yearly learning budget - nice office / nice location

Kontras

- low wages compared to the competition (despite what they say about benchmarking. They do benchmark at a competitive rate (top 70%) but this wage is only available at the highest tier ranking of a job - and people enter a job at the lowest tier. Essentially, it would take at the very best of cases 3 years (with 6 outstanding performance reviews in a row) to be even considered for the best wage (benchmarked wage)). - management decides something and forces it upon the staff but the corporate message is: 'we're giving you the choice', when there is no choice, as it will happen regardless of your choice) - bad options for in-house training/development (their learning platform allows simply to upload zoom calls or google slides and this is named a training) - burnout and stress have increased throughout teams consistently - companies try and deal with it by providing a counselling service rather than tackling the underlying causes (i.e too many prios / not enough team members, etc.) - inflexible working from home policy (100% Work from home not allowed) - some departments / teams favoured and/or receive better benefits than others (i.e. engineers usually are allowed more flexibility with wages / work from home policy / learning budget and even diversity and inclusion when hiring. Unfortunately, the engineering team is the gold standard and the other departments get whatever is leftover in the budget to split amongst themselves)

Pros

Great international environment, a nice office in Berlin, great perks. The overall atmosphere was good, we felt like working together towards the same goal.

Kontras

In some teams, there is the preference on getting managers from outside, instead of developing their own talents. When the pandemic hit, almost 100 employees were laid off, apparently to hit investors targets. The company got a big investment right after the employees left.
