In job advertisements, startups often offer things like free coffee and fruit, flat hierarchies, and team events. But also things like "agile and digital working" and "customized IT equipment."
The beautiful, colorful world of startups is typically characterized by flat hierarchies, short decision-making processes, flexible working hours, team events, a relaxed working atmosphere, and free drinks. But many startups offer their employees other benefits or emphasize other things in their job advertisements. deutsche-startups.de has sifted through several hundred job advertisements and compiled the special figures, data and facts that startups use to attract employees.
Why? So that others can be inspired. What's striking is that in many ads, pay plays no role or is barely a focus. In the startup world, soft factors are far more important than pay. However, many startups also play on the cliché that startups have little money. Only a few young companies emphasize that they are backed by "well-known investors."
