Hi dear former colleague, We are glad to hear you enjoyed working with your peers. Team climate consistently comes up as one of the top things Jimdoers appreciate about working here. We understand your feelings about the recent layoffs and concerns over the lack of stability. As a company, we constantly change to provide the best services to our users and to stay ahead of the competition in a fast-paced environment. Jimdo is in a strong strategic position because our free and paid products are the foundation for millions of users to start, build, and grow their small businesses - and we will continue to expand our offerings to solve even more of their problems. However, the world is in a crisis that we simply cannot ignore. A recession is looming, and according to the Jimdo Business Climate Index, it will hit the smallest businesses - our customers - the hardest. Our users are already reporting that their customers have reduced their spending, which will likely lead them to reduce their spending on our products in turn. That's why we've taken this difficult step to reduce the size of our workforce in order to make our company more resilient to the expected turmoil. Jimdo has provided the affected employees with the best possible support in this situation. They received above-average severance packages as well as outplacement counseling and psychological support.

Pros

Jimdo is a place filled with talented, dedicated people who are myopically focused on achieving their mission of helping their customers be successful. If you're a person looking to learn new skills, take on additional responsibility, be challenged by complex projects and develop your career, this is THE place for you to be. Additionally, Jimdo is incredibly flexible and treats their employees like humans, values diversity, asks for employee's opinions, is super transparent and invests in their employee's development.

Cons

Jimdo is in a period of transition and change (almost all for the better). However, you have to know that, and want that. As examples, policies evolve, new people are hired, new products are always launched, tests occur constantly, etc. If you are looking for a place that will allow you to skate by without hard work, this is NOT the place for you.
