Pros

Breakfast, company wide skitrip, people are quite friendly, international office, new equipment

Cons

As I stared to work there we used to have snacks, breakfast and monthly team lunches, after two months most of it disappeared. For a non French speaking person is quite hard to find one´s place. 80% of the employees are French which wouldnt be a problem if they would stick to the company language English. The communication between the differnt teams is very rough and there is big blaming culture. Team work should also be improved. The company sticks to the bare minimum when it comes to benefits and holidays. When I signed the contract I wasnt aware that they dont have paid sick days!! No flexible working hours and no working from home. And last but not least 15 people where fired in one day as they all of a sudden facing financial risks. All in all not a very pleasant experiance and I would not recommend to start working there.

Thanks for the review. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the company ski trip trip, as well as the great environment that we work hard to create, to ensure all our employees enjoy their time at work. Snacks and breakfast are great, but we feel a very small link in the overall chain, of the culture we're trying to build at YOOBIC (although these did not disappear, with opening our new office, food was simply spread throughout 2 locations). We're sad to hear that your overall impression of YOOBIC seems to be negative. We work hard to ensure communication lines are always open, both between leadership & employees, and between departments. We are dependant on each other, and one department cannot be successful without the support of another. As a young growing company, we continue to build out our benefits package, adding private medical cover for everyone last year, as well as a host of other benefits across all of our locations. We can't quite compete with Apple and Facebook yet! But we continue to improve as we grow in order to attract and retain high caliber talent. We are deeply saddened by the enforced decision to have to let go a portion of the team, brought about by the Covid-19 crisis. The fact we are not the only company forced into these decisions, does not make those decisions any easier. However, we are proud of the number of people we have been able to keep employed with us, and are confident we will make it to the other side of the crisis, and be stronger as a result of it. Thanks for the review, and despite disagreeing with some of it, we wish you all the very best

Pros

Team is wicked smart, cares about each other, our amazing clients and success, great office culture and lots of cross functional support from other departments like marketing customer team etc.

Cons

Leadership is very involved so if that isnt for you sometimes its not the right fit.

Pros

People: largely decent folks who mean well and genuinely put their hearts into the work

Cons

Leadership exploits anyone with a strong work ethic and insists on having their fingerprints on everything. Strategy rarely extends beyond the next quick win, with long-term growth seemingly an afterthought. Salaries pegged to the 50th percentile. You're perpetually at or below what the market would otherwise offer. HR about as welcoming as a wet Tuesday in November.
