Skimlinks Reviews

Pros

I can't think of any pros

Cons

Racist company where you are successful based on your skin colour, not based on your qualifications and skills.

Advice to Management

Become less racist

Pros

My higher ups attitude and cigarette smoking capabilities and how he says the word "obliged". He is a busy man.

Cons

My higher up and I had tea parties every day (along with the other boys in the yard) and when I had a tea party with the second in command he fired me and got promoted and told me he would be "obliged to share details of our tea parties to future employers" (his milkshake tasted better than mine)

Advice to Management

I would have loved the big boss in our tea party. He makes nice teas. I like earl grey. I was obliged to share this to readers.

Pros

Technology developers work with--Skimlinks is at the forefront of what is used in the cloud and continuously strives to innovate. People--you will meet a great bunch of fun and clever people. Great learning and development budget.

Cons

It's been very busy in recent months. Although there is a one day a month allocation for learning and development I feel it's been hard to make use of it. (However I enjoy and learn doing my actual work anyway.)

Advice to Management

Make sure there is actually an opportunity to make use of the day a month for learning and development.

Pros

- The people are second to none. Warm, gracious and smart. In many cases colleagues become friends and that makes for an excellent working environment day-to-day. - There is a real focus on learning & development. I put together a learning & development plans which my manager supports, champions and holds me accountable to. You get a significant individual learning budget to spend however you want:... events, courses, classes etc. - And lastly you get recognised when you deserve it. There's an employee of the week, Slack channel dedicated to shouting out when people do good things, and a real focus on showing people appreciation for the hard work they do day-in-day-out.

Cons

- There is a fast pace of life and you do have to juggle a lot of responsibilities at once, but that also offers more opportunities for growth than you might have in other businesses - The business is really keenly focused on measurement of success, with metrics and KPIs across the business, so if you aren't the most numerically-inclined, there is a learning curve to get to grips with measuring your own... performance

Pros

Room to grow and learn new skills Companie's easy going culture Colleagues are always happy to help and explain tasks into details Learning and development budget

Cons

Occasional heavy workload where prioritization is needed

Pros

Very respectful of employees that give their all, in return the company will invest in you and develop you. Very smart and intelligent teams across the business. Company has a great vision and is very respected by their clients.

Cons

More an individual personnel basis. Some people don't have a positive attitude to change and feel they are entitled. No fault of the company, itself.

Advice to Management

Look for people with positive attitudes, above all. Keep doing what the business aims to do and continue to invest in development and take feedback from CEO to office manager.

Pros

- Working with a very smart and kind team - The opportunity to work with the best publishers and brands in the world - Fantastic benefits - Being part of a very fast-growing company - The ability to make an impact. If you want to test or try something or introduce a new initiative for the company, they are very supportive

Cons

- Things can at times move very quickly and can be tricky to keep up.

Pros

I have been working in Skimlinks since almost 2 years. I had the opportunity to develop and grow into my role since day 1. The company is a place full of positive challenges and there is a fantastic environment too.

Cons

Some period can be hectic than others.
