Pros

The culture in this company is horrible. Senior Management in Americas is awful. Sinking ship. Be advised, save yourself the heartache and don't work here.

Cons

No 401K match. Poor leadership in Americas. Revolving door of staff and major layoffs. Mircroaggressions in the workplace. Toxic culture Hardworking team mates fired without cause or solid reasons.

Dear former colleague, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re very concerned to read about your experience and the serious issues you describe. Allegations related to toxic culture, discrimination, microaggressions, and unfair treatment are taken extremely seriously and do not align with the values we expect across Statista. We recognize that recent periods of change, including restructuring and layoffs, have been particularly challenging. However, these situations must be handled with transparency, fairness, and respect. Your feedback clearly indicates areas where leadership practices, communication, and people processes—especially within the Americas—require critical reflection and improvement. We also appreciate your concrete suggestions regarding leadership development, bias training, and more robust performance management processes. Input like this is important as we continue to review and strengthen our organizational structures and accountability mechanisms. Thank you for sharing your perspective. We wish you all the best for your future career. Best regards, Team Talent Acquisition

Pros

I can't speak for everyone that works here, but considering my specific department and what I do, I love working here and I love the environment I get to do it in. Still get to work from home some days. FANTASTIC parental leave, generous vacation and health days that in crease with a few years in. Friendly office filled with co-workers you actually want to be around. I always say the job is yours to lose if you do what you're supposed to and do it well you shouldn't face too many issues here.

Cons

- Salary needs to be more competitive - Biggest bottleneck is often having to go through our headquarters in Germany which can take forever especially if it's after hours for them and we're still working (wish we were more self-reliant or allowed to be) - Low budget set for profit centers to be able to do certain job functionalities properly sometimes. - Health Insurance needs to be better (better coverage for better pricing) - Missing 401K company match

Dear colleague, Thank you for your detailed and positive review and for sharing your long-term perspective. We’re very pleased to hear that you enjoy your role, the work environment, and the flexibility, benefits, and parental leave offered, as well as the strong sense of community in the New York office. We also appreciate your open and constructive feedback regarding compensation, local autonomy, budgets, and benefits such as health insurance and retirement plans. These are important topics, and perspectives from experienced colleagues help inform ongoing discussions and improvements, particularly across regions. Thank you for your continued commitment and engagement. We’re glad to have you as part of the team and wish you continued success at Statista. Best regards, Team Talent Acquisition

Pros

-The only pro is the people, not any one in leadership (probably due to a trauma bond)

Cons

Where to even start, this company used to be a great company to work for where people came together to help eachother succeed. Our leaders used to care about your growth and success now you are just given more and more responsibility’s and expected to go above and beyond. Where hitting unrealistic targets is just seen as meeting expectations. Leaders and HR set a three days in office policy that employees are expected to adhere to while they never actually show up to the office or if they do they leave at 3pm. People are now often used as scapegoats, and what was once a people first, inclusive culture turned into a culture of blame, micromanagement and favoritism. Add all the above to below market salaries for NYC and that’s the type of company the Statista Americas is. It feels like a sinking ship that everyone is leaving before they have yet another round of layoffs. I would recommend to be very hesitant and in dire need of a job if you are thinking about working here.
