Product Manager, DeepL SE

Micromanaging just doesn't happen here. You're given the tools to get your job done and then you get it done. It's simple, you're hired to do a job and as such are treated with respect

Everyone is friendly and the culture promotes friendships and brilliant interactions. I frequently ask my peers for recommendations on things I enjoy, such as coffee and the responses are always fantastic

The diversity in DeepL is more than just surface level. They actively try to learn how to be more inclusive and promote being yourself. There is no point in hiring diversity but then enforcing everyone to behave the same. DeepL really let you thrive as an individual

Everyone is super passionate about the tech and the product, so every day is an amazing chance to learn - not only within your team, but also in the form of cross-functional projects. The benefits only increase that opportunity!

We hire excellent people, both culturally and technically. Having so many different cultures, nationalities and characters at DeepL, it still always clicks. It's amazing to be able to learn from other cultures.

We have a super flexible work culture with full remote setups and working hours. Other benefits even expand that flexibility! DeepL not only cares about ones physical, but also the mental wellbeing - we have great structures and incentives in place

Super high level tools and advancing with most basic human needs. The team is super tech oriented and I appreciate the chances to experience different technical areas.

My work hours differ from a. normal 9-5 and to have a chance to innovate, I am provided a chance to work in my peak productivity hours. I also like the positive fully remote working which is very conducive to my wellbeing.

DeepL uses a variety of sources to provide a benchmark that is very fair and provide high promotions. I appreciate that I was offered higher than my expectations and thereafter promoted with a higher compensation as I performed exceptionally well within 7 months.

I am very happy to be working for an AI company and to be able to actively influence the latest trends and possibilities of this exciting technology. DeepL rightly has a very good reputation for translation quality and reliability.

From day one, I was given a lot of freedom to design and implement my work, which is very important to me. Nevertheless, there are always helpful colleagues who can help you further. Furthermore, I have never experienced such a detailed and well thought-out onboarding for new employees.

It is the first time in my working life that I work for a company whose product I can absolutely stand behind. And it makes a huge difference. I simply enjoy working here because the product makes the world a little bit better. That is also the understanding of most colleagues at DeepL.

DeepL is growing very quickly and autonomy is necessary as there are a lot of new things coming in all the time! It is also part of DeepL's vision, they want to offer a flexible working environment.

Management is putting a lot of effort since a few months into recruiting the right people with the right team/culture fit. People are nice and friendly!

Time and schedules are not tracked by management and flexible working is encouraged for everyone. You don't need to take sick leave when going to the doctor or things like that.

The business is growing fast. So if you come in with a lot of experience, you can apply quickly as we're building so much, and because we're also building, you can learn how to do that too. As we shift to a greater focus on B2B, a lot of GTM team members are learning to think differently about what different stakeholders want. There are 'functional internships' that allow you to sit with other team members to understand their day to day. There are formal trainings provided for all roles, with a focus on professional development you don't see in other younger or older companies.

DeepL is a much loved product in Europe and Japan but the opportunity to introduce it to users in North America, LATAM, Middle East, and more of Asia is incredibly exciting. It feels like one of the few growing companies in tech that is hiring right now, but hiring smartly. Having been part of earlier waves of rapid tech hiring, DeepL is being smart about what roles need to be brought on and how quickly.

Great team energy. This describes the mix of highly motivated individuals who are also incredibly smart and experienced, and are keen on working collaboratively to build a business. Everyone knows there are challenges and roadblocks, but we are rowing as a team to improve things. The culture is set from the top and reinforced at all levels. Strong marks for the leadership team, who are mature, professional and supportive.

Everyone that I've met at DeepL is engaged, thoughtful and an expert in their field. In addition, the culture is such that knowledge sharing is encouraged, and everyone is willing to take the time to share their expertise with others, resulting in a well-rounded, aligned team.

For a remote-first company, communication at DeepL is the best I've ever encountered in a business. Online tools and regular calls are leveraged to communicate business changes, challenges and successes to all levels of the company.

For a fast-growing, fast-paced business, it's incredible to see that employee wellbeing is still one of the top priorities. Senior leadership realise that a happy team with a good work/life balance is a motivated, efficient team. Regular events are scheduled to encourage employees to bond and blow off steam, and working smarter, not harder is the priority.

This company is full of intelligent and very open-minded people. Everyone is working for a good cause and having fun in the team at the same time. Everything is very transparent and they really care about their employees. Mental and physical health at work is taken very seriously.

The energies within the team are really something special. We support each other in every possible way. Teamleads always keep you updated and take care of you as an employee.

We are not just a software company. Our goal is to break the language barriers and impact everyone's daily life. To open a gateway to understand and communicate with each other - which is the key to a better world.

The CEO has kids himself and especially through Covid made clear that family is the most important thing in life and a job is only a job. The company truly lives that and accepts that life gets in the way.

I never have the feeling that anything going on is being hidden from the employees. When something goes good it’s communicated the same way if it doesn’t.

Jarek is a great leader and really cares about DeepL. He is super approachable and has an ear for you no matter your position in the company. He has a great vision and has found the people who support him on that.

We are doing many things differently than others and still everything works exceptionally well. There are tons of new things to learn everyday.

The hierarchies are very flat and it is easy to reach out to other teams to work together on things.

It is quite easy and appreciated to bring in your ideas and get enough room to work on it. I never felt I have to work on something I disagree about.

It feels great to have that kind of freedom to be really creative and contribute with ideas to our products and teams development. This is only possible because you know that people respect and value your opinion at DeepL.

It is a big plus not only to be able to work flexible hours, but also to know that our team is so considerate and understanding when I need some time for my family. DeepL also offers a truly stress-free approach for those who want to work from home and/or from the office: You are free to decide what is most suitable for you.

The opportunity to work together with colleagues from all different backgrounds is part of what makes the working environment at DeepL so special and unique. I have always felt incredibly welcome in this company!

At DeepL, our mission is to break down language barriers. We deliver a product, based on cutting edge, innovative research, that our users love because it helps to unlock their true potential. Both in the private and professional realm.

Our culture is built on the importance of people and their ideas. An idea -- no matter how wild --, opinion or suggestion on how to improve our product, our culture, ourselves, ... is always welcome. This empowers us to become the best versions of ourselves; individually and collectively.

DeepL puts people first. There are various programs to cater for its employees' physical and mental health. Working hours and even locations are, wherever possible, flexible so they can fit their lives.

We have amazing experts at DeepL - some people used to work for universities, and now are with us :) We also have real language freaks, and I really adore the fact that I can practice my target languages with my colleagues every single day. It helps me to grow and learn more.

DeepL was my favourite service long before I was even thinking about joining the company. I loved it, and I still love it and use it after work – I think it's way better than Google Translate, and I see every single day how our specialists use the latest technologies to make it even better. It's a great thing to be a part of it!

Even though I work remotely, I don't feel like I am underpaid comparing to my colleagues working from the office. My salary is good, and it motivates me to do my best at work – let's be honest here, it's an important factor for every employee, as you won't pay your bills with "amazing atmosphere" and "great team" (although we have them too at DeepL) :)

You get time and all the resources you need so that you can learn everything you need for your daily job and beyond. There are initiatives to let you learn whatever you want (even not-work related topics).

You help people communicate with their coworkers, families and friends around the world. DeepL helps people to connect with each other and students to learn. All this for free so that everybody is able to get the best translation quality in the web.

Needless to say that a startup like DeepL doesn't only *need* the best talent in the world but also attracts it. You meet world-class talented colleagues everywhere. And on top of that all people here are happy to teach and spread their knowledge.

Working hours are flexible under the principle of responsible autonomy, where each member of the team is takes responsibility for delivering value, regardless of when the work is actually undertaken.

Deepl simply has the most advance translation product on the planet, and with plans to include even more languages, the company is poised to change how the people of earth communicate, and thereby relate to each other.

The sheer level of brainpower that is brough to bear at DeepL is simply staggering. Other than just delivering a product, DeepL is also a research organization working at the very bleeding edge of machine learning.

I love working at DeepL because we have such a great product and we can help people and businesses communicate better and break down language barriers.

The people at DeepL are brilliant, interesting and interested, which makes it possible to learn a lot about a variety of subjects, mostly technology and languages, but also many others.

The working hours, the place of work, the way of working, everything is flexible, which allows to have a WORK/life balance as it is rare to find.
