      Pros

      - Colleagues are great and always happy to help - Good socials IF you are based in Copenhagen - Great, customisable product with multitude of features

      Cons

      - Please consider how these reviews are from employees/former employees, which are met with copy and pasted, scripted answers - you can expect the same thing internally - Be careful joining as there was a restructure (1 of 4 or 5 previously within a year) which was decided in March, yet they hired people in the following months who were then eventually let go - They talk the talk, but often don't walk the walk - Salary should probably be more for what you do - Take caution as they explain that budget is always good or as expected in QBRs, but numerous individuals who have asked for raises, are always hit with the scapegoat answer of "Budget" (therefore needs to actually be honest with their budget issues) - Entire UK Office folded within a year with several Sales individuals also handing in their notice of recent - ZERO benefits

      We are a scale-up that has just gone through the first year of pursuing rapid growth - and that has definitely been with ups and downs. 2022, and the first two months of 2023, were a period of a lot of failures (or learnings some will call them) which we acknowledge and have learned from. We are sad that this affected our collaboration, and resulted in this comment among several responses from colleagues that were not considered to be part of the coming journey ahead. Being transparent about what was needed to happen to set a stronger GTM has been very clear since March 2023. We have been focused on upscaling in knowledge and finding the right leaders to become better, and welcome colleagues who are specialists in their field as we have been setting up new roles. We have a flat structure in the company, and if anything has been unclear even both founders of the Relesys have always been reachable for a chat if one reached out. Coming from a background of being a bootstrapped company for the first seven years, Relesys has always prioritized being a sustainable and healthy organization, and we are proud to say that we are that thanks to a great finance department, and where following the allocated budget is a reality for keeping the organization healthy. BUT, the proven performance and success of the individual will be met with rewards and benefits. We have several employees who have been in the company for 2, 3, and even 6+ years and have grown from interns to leaders, or part-time to full-time, who are proof of this, and everyone who is looking for more perspective on this is welcome to reach out to current employees on LinkedIn. Relesys supports social events to be arranged by all offices, for breakfast in the office every Wednesday, Friday drinks on the house, official Friday bar once a month (often with a theme), coffee, tea, snacks, Global Summer Party, Christmas Party, team workshops and more. While the Talent (HR team) is only represented in HQ, the other regional offices with 6-12 colleagues, are encouraged to take on a shared responsibility as we are all responsible for building a great culture. But support and encouragement to do so is definitely there. There are always two sides to the same story, and this message was tough to read. But the feedback is considered and taken very seriously. We have come a long way from several of the points made, but we will continue improving and getting better. Hope your next journey will be a success and the right match for you :)

      Approach with caution

      Pros

      My colleagues, but the majority were fired.

      Cons

      UK applicants should be aware of the chaos that they will be entering into. Strategies and decisions from the leadership team change daily and no job is safe. Firing employees is their forte, alongside underpaying, giving minimal benefits and providing the minimum number of holiday days. I would definitely approach with caution.

      Pros

      Product serves its niche well - great customer feedback and reviews. Great place to work if you are in the Client Success or Design divisions, especially if you are looking for a junior or entry-level position in Denmark. Met some fantastic people working here.

      Cons

      Constant change in sales and marketing strategy. Board and executive management lack patience when it comes to allowing strategies to mature. This led to changes in strategy every 2 - 3 months making it impossible to be successful within a revenue generation role especially given sales cycles are typically 4 - 8 months long. Five sales leaders (four of which had responsibility for revenue globally) were employed and dismissed in the space of 12 months as a result of the above with countless sales positions following suit on a regular basis, including individuals who had contributed large contracts won in in the weeks leading up to being let go. Cannot recommend Relesys as a stable or fulfilling workplace in a sales or marketing role, especially outside of their core Danish market. Relesys' arrival in UK was a little late - lots of well established competitors already working with Relesys' ICPs means business outlook is going to be an uphill battle.

      Entering a new market while establishing the very first outbound sales team in Relesys (ever), has definitely meant a lot of learnings and bumps along the way, while taking a lot of risks. In January 2022, we started this outbound sales journey and hired green AEs based on talent and potential, without a proven SaaS Enterprise track record. Amazing people who were eager to learn and ready to bring Relesys to the UK market with full power and high velocity. Unfortunately, as described, it was not as successful and a lot of changes happened along the way in the effort to make it a success. While we could definitely teach the AEs about our Product which has had 80% of our clients come inbound, we could not teach them how to do sales, and neither did we know what kind of leader we would need to change this narrative. But we learned that we had to change course and seek the knowledge of what great looks like. We learned that when selling into Enterprise, MEDDPICC sales methodology would be our game-changer in our outbound efforts. Also that this starts with a strong MEDDPICC Sales Leader, and MEDDPICC-driven Enterprise Account Executives, who have done this before and can bring in the sales know-how that we simply did not have before. Now, we have both the strong product-market-fit, we have the sales strategy, we have the sales leadership and we are looking for the experienced Enterprise AEs who have seen what great looks like and who are eager for the opportunity to turn this around into success and manifest Relesys in the UK Enterprise market. If any future candidate would like more elaboration on this learning journey, we will be completely transparent about where we come from, and confident about where we are now going.
