Pros

Permissive remote work policy, central location

Cons

Poor pay and no benefits (no pension plan, no 6th vacation week, no additional insurance). No room for negotiation either, have been told several times salary reviews "are not a discussion". Limited career growth, and promotions do not necesarily come with a raise. HR department is defensive and dismissive, it can feel powerless from employees perspective to voice any complaint. Overall culture feels like people are giving up, with a high turnover rate

Hi and thanks for taking the time to provide feedback. Any chance you would like to discuss this in person or via OfficeVibe? I can see you are a 'current employee'. I'm sure either your manager, the people team or even Anders would be interested in hearing about your employee experience. Obviously, it's far from what Famly aspires to be as a company, so we'd appreciate a chance to share perspectives on the complexities of nurturing a team and growing a company. Best regards Famly

Pros

Very flexible work life balance. Quarterly team events, and a well stocked beer fridge.

Cons

Crap pay. Culture has become full of people who hate working there. Company is full of really great people, but the HR department are out of touch an unapproachable.
