Brandwatch ist ein spaßiges, energisches und kreatives Unternehmen mit passionierten Mitarbeitern.Die Führungsetage ist zielgerichtet, offen, weiß gute Arbeit zu schätzen und äußert konstruktive Kritik. Die Kollegen sind zuverlässig und kooperativ, was sie zu tollen Teamspielern macht. Man kann sich sicher sein, dass die eigene Meinung bei Kollegen und Geschäftsführung Gehör findet.

Kontras

In einer schnell wachsenden Firma zu arbeiten bedeutet, eine erhebliche Menge Arbeit zu erledigen, was sich manchmal negativ auf die Work-Life-Balance auswirken kann.

Pros

Das nette und professionelle Arbeitsumfeld wird von allen Angestellten geschätzt. Das Personal steht im Vordergrund, dem Unternehmen ist wichtig, dass sich die Angestellten wohl fühlen. Super Sozialleistungen. Der Kühlschrank im Büro ist auch immer voll!

Kontras

Aufgrund des Erfolgs von Brandwatch sind lange Arbeitszeiten manchmal notwendig. Aber man wird auch dafür belohnt!

Rat an das Management

Das Team sollte kreativ sein dürfen, es ist wichtig, die Meinung der Leute einzuholen. Wir sind alle ein großes Team und ziehen am selben Strang - die Führung sollte die Richtung vorgeben und nicht chefmäßig auftreten.

Pros

Brandwatch is a great company that do a lot for their staff. Not only is the company pushing forward in its industry but the staff culture is too. Although the office is not the modern hub it used to be it remains a nice environment and place to be. Colleagues are nice although there is no community atmosphere. All in all a nice place to work.

Kontras

The main con is the hours: 8.30 - 5.30. Whilst this isn’t a lot longer than other work places it does tire the work force. You can see this by the procrastination of staff as they feel the longs days and come Friday the office is slow and empty. A normal 9-5.30 would not only energise the team but hell this of us with kids or a commute. The offices are cold and quiet. I think a refer should be thought about to... encourage a stronger work force.

Listen to staff. The long days are noticeably deconstructive. The pay isn’t on level with industry comparisons but that’s how it is. All in all I would suggesting in listening to the staff to see what would drive productivity. The socials are for the incrowd and don’t do much for the wider staff.

Pros

I loved my time here! The culture, the people and the tool really made it an incredible place to work.

Kontras

There was not the opportunity to grow or at least not as quickly as I would have expected from a tech company.

Pros

Great talk when it comes to culture, lovely laptop, really lovely massages, juices and the pay is not bad at all. It's a great product very visually pleasing and very useful insights. Their dev team are second to none, always launching great, Customer led new features

Kontras

Cliques all over the place. it's a very uncomfortable place to work. people are fairly closed off, there seems to be this weird pretension around being edgy and cool. If you're not in with the right people life is more difficult. I personally always felt like an outsider. The office is oddly quiet, people will leave their desks to make a call, which isn't too helpful when you're learning and makes for a... really weird and seemingly unproductive office space. I joined as the merger was taking place and it was not a good experience, there were a lot of long serving team members chopped, but the merging partner Crimson seemed to have it far worse. No reassurances or direction were given, just a resounding "we don't know what's going on or what's going to happen" which basically says to me that the leaders are not leading. Giles has to be the least inspiring CEO and speaker, almost laughable. He doesn't really give the impression of caring too much about the business anymore. He seems to try and swear a lot in the understanding that this is cool but really it's super awkward. Overall I felt very isolated, not as if I was a part of something.

I don't know what you could with the culture at this point. The product is great though and I'm sure it'll be amazing when merged with Crimsons platform.

Pros

Lovely office; good people; challenging and fulfilling workload; flexibility; food; social options.

Kontras

Lack of atmosphere when so many people are WFH; hard to attract and retain infrastructure engineers; recent merger, although healthy, has resulted in many staff changes and been unsettling

Pros

Great place to work with some amazing people.

Kontras

Likes to be thought of as progressive, but it's disappointingly skewed in favour of white middle class men.

Drop the creepy guru.

Pros

Brandwatch is a wonderful bubble you don't realise you're in until you leave. It's full of exciting opportunities, and everyone is absolutely on top of their game and striving to be better which in turns encourages you to be the best at what you do. Yes you work hard and smart, but there's no micro management (there simply isn't the time) and you're often empowered to go and run with an idea. everyone has great... levels of autonomy. The people are incredible, like a breed you don't find anywhere else and they genuinely care about each other. There's some amazing socials, parties, free fruit, drinks, fooseball, all the things you'd expect to see in a Brighton based start up. In hindsight, I should've looked for opportunity within the business, because they are there, you just need to find them.

Kontras

Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the day to day but it's essential you identify that and share any frustrations early on, people will listen. ake it clear early on what your ambitions and goals are. It really is a great place to work.

Rat an das Management

Keep doing what you're doing, listen to all levels of staff, not just those at the top.
