Pluspunten

- some people are ok - decent product

Minpunten

- Filter by countries and you will see the score for the London office - I am quite sure this review will be followed by at least 2-3 other positive reviews. They always do this - You get promoted only based on your friendship with the management, regardless of your performance. That’s a very common thing at this company. You will see people that are not even at the half of your performance and are getting promoted just because they are friends with who they need to be. - The most senior manager in London wants to control every little thing. He started to ask people what they could do to improve the culture. When people tell him what is not working, he threatens them with dismissal just because they dared to challenge them. - The same manager starts a motivational speech with “you have to stay motivated because we are paying you” - After all these reviews they keep saying how great they are and how employees should change their attitude to improve the culture - unbelievable - Micromanagement is at its highest level. You can even overachieve in targets, they will always find something negative to focus on. - There is no way you could raise your concerns with HR. They will just report it to the upper management and you will get in trouble.

Chris, SVP EMEA It’s hard to read this review, because I know how much effort your colleagues put into to creating a positive work environment. Those are the same colleagues who want to protect each other by posting the positive reviews you mentioned. Similarwebbers are trusted to manage their own work responsibilities, encouraged to be entrepreneurial. No one is looking to micromanage their work. We always take thoughtful feedback seriously and recognize that like every company, we can always strive to be better. We work as a connected team to grow and improve continuously and this desire to improve is genuine. We are all working towards the same goal of making Similarweb an incredible place to work. I would very much like to address your personal concerns directly, and encourage you to email me at christian.penfold@similarweb.com

Pluspunten

Awesome product, competitive comp, large market and good internal culture with solid middle leadership.

Minpunten

Top leadership can sometimes be seen as reactionary and removed from the market and customers. They are great with product but not necessarily with GTM or investing in growth broadly.
