Pros

Nice people overall, everyone is willing to help when needed. Great work life balance

Cons

The company promotes people from within the company who don't have the minimum skills to be managers. All they care about is that you get the job done, even if it belongs to other teams or other positions in the company, and without having received the training for it, maybe because of lack of manpower. No happy hours, no events. The field of work is boring.

Thank you for taking the time to review your current work experience at Outbrain. Reading our internal promotions are making you feel we are not enabling internal mobility based on skills is a disappointment. Training all new managers to become great leaders is part of the Learning and Development efforts, as well as enabling talent within our company to grow to ensure they develop and stay with us in the business. The lack of happy hours and events is related to the really hard years we have had due to COVID-19 and we are slowly having more activities onsite, encouraging people to get back to the office and offering steadily more office perks. We recommend you reach out to the P&C team and discuss the specifics of this managerial promotion who might be demotivating you at work. We know sometimes those conversations can be difficult but by sharing the full story we will be able to help and support you. Looking forward to hearing from you!
