Spotahome Reviews

Pros

Great Team and opportunities.

Cons

Not enough growth and development opportunities. Also, quite important communication problems within and between departments.

Pros

Office with young people. Free beers Friday afternoon. Can’t remember any more pros about this company. Rooftop terrace is a pro

Cons

Worst management that I’ve ever experienced. My manager was totally lost and had no idea on what to do. Worst part of it is that the management lacks knowledge and they don’t accept any new ideas. Every time I’ve suggested something it’s seemed like the end of the world. I won’t recommend anyone to work for Spotahome if they want to grow professionally. The only guy that seems to understand the business is the CEO... but unfortunately is never there.

Advice to Management

To hear and accept new ideas is essential to take your business next level. You can’t have managers who lack leadership and communication skills and call them managers. When working there I’ve heard one of the managers saying, in the middle of the office, that he would lie to any business school student saying that he would do things that actually he won’t at the end, just to have him on board. By these I do... believe that you understand why I didn’t want to stay there. CHANGE YOU MANAGEMENT IF YOU WANT TO SUCEED

Pros

Dynamic place to work, great people and management very open to innovation

Cons

Sometimes there are too many direction changes and lack of focus.

Advice to Management

Continue listening employers and please don’t make the company become corporate

Pros

- free beers on Fridays

Cons

- no training offered - be ready to have 15 chats opened with 15 different customers at the same time from your 4th day of employment - total lack of organization

Pros

I've been working at Spotahome for almost 3 years and my experience could not be better. I have seen the company grow up solidly year after year. Workers very enthusiastic about the company and show real commitment with the project. It allows your a fair bit of autonomy. Very effective and fluent communication.

Cons

The only thing I could say is the heavy workload some months and the lack of it other months. But besides that....all pros for me.

Pros

Start-Up Company with great atmoshpere and if they have a project in hands you will see how fast a company can grow. Great Work-life Balance.

Cons

Lack of motivation from the Management and most of the jobs are just operational. The management is unexperienced and most of the time you feel as they do not know how to face this issue and to talk to the employees. They demand profiles with experience, bachelors, Masters and languages but they do not know how to use them properly.

Advice to Management

If you want to maintain employees you should be more concerned about their thoughts and adopt measures!

Pros

Advice to Management

Continue to learn and live, whatever people are saying, you are doing what only few succeed to do.
