Audiense Reviews

Pros

Lovely bunch of people, who made me feel welcome straight away. Something I've learned from and tried to do to others who have joined since.

With employees working in multiple different countries, a real effort is made to bring us together, despite the distance.

There's regularly new opportunities and things to do. If you're smart and active, you can build up quite a repository of skills and experience.

A CEO who truly cares about the people and company, but who is also smart enough to surround himself with people who are stronger in some areas than him and listens to their advice.

Excellent business projections and product developments are in place for the next year, so there's many things on the horizon.

Advice to Management

We've got good people all the way through the company. While it needs experience to lead it to new places, I think the longer-term vision of the business needs to incorporate meaningful ways of bringing people up to some of the more senior positions.

Pros

- friendly and fun people and environment
- "can do" culture to overcome any challenges
- great clients to work with across many sectors
- access to the Co-founders to help where needed
- aggressive growth strategy and an aligned workforce

Advice to Management

involve your employees of all positions in senior decision-making meetings to ensure that Audiense promotes an inclusive environment where we can all learn from each other.

Pros

Apart from the fact that working in a startup gives you the opportunity to work in many different tasks an also the chance to get some responsibilities that you would not get in any other kind of business, the best thing about Audiense is the team. Feels like a family and there's always something that makes you go home happy, every single day.

Advice to Management

More catch ups, sometimes we need some help/tips/support. Completely understand you have n time even for yourselves, but is the only thing I would ask for. Of course some people are very good at this, just need a balance with the others.

Pros

- Great team, all willing to go the extra mile for the good of others. Supportive, helpful and fun!
- All areas of the company work closely together and communication between the areas of the business are great.
- Good career prospects with loads of opportunities to grow as a rounded individual - this comes from being part of highly driven and well organised teams.
- Excellent opportunity to extend your professional network, constantly meeting new people in an exciting sector.

Advice to Management

Slightly more acknowledgement from the top wouldn't go a miss - but keep going the way we are going and things will be great!

Fun team & recognition for good work
Doing exciting work with clients which will continue with growth
Flat structure improves communication

Advice to Management

More transparency of career progressions & company direction

Advice to Management

Invest in an office radio and maybe get a bigger space.

Pros

- Very little staff turnover
- Development and product are very very closely aligned, you know your work won't be for nothing two weeks later
- Challenging, seeking for new technologies to ease things
- Always looking for new ways to keep employees in touch as most of them are working remotely

Advice to Management

Look for ways to compensate your employees, create development opportunities.

Pros

Flexibility of role, fun culture, nice offices

Advice to Management

Value your long-term staff, create development opportunities and seek to move loyal and hard-working employees into senior roles. Worry less about exponential growth and focus on your product.

Pros

Audiense is a great company overall. In not much time, it has grown from being a very small startup to a more enterprise-focused company, without losing its startup spirit. I think you have the best of both worlds: a vibrant, startup-like company with great ambiance and great people, but also the opportunity to build a product that is used by enterprise international companies, and have a real impact in the product.
Remote friendly.
The CTO is a great guy and leads engineering with a lot of common sense.

Advice to Management

Invest in some employee benefits in the mid term.

Pros

- Fabulous people to work with
- Outstanding flexibility
- Constant challenges

Advice to Management

- Hire the right people for the right job in senior positions...
