ABOUT YOU Response

Dear colleague, Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that all in all you are not satisfied with your job and the company culture. You're right that we have a high workload and that you sometimes work beyond your regular working hours. On the other hand, we always try to give the opportunity to take on responsibility right from the start and to involve our employees in important projects for their professional development. But if you feel like your workload constantly is too high to handle or you notice anything that can be improved, you can contact us as the HR team at any time or write an email to: tech-recruiting@aboutyou.com - we are happy to hear about your ideas. We are very happy to have you on board and hope to count on you in the future! Best regards, Friederike
