Pros

- Work-life balance - Tech

Cons

Storyblok has a handful of great people, great culture and great tech. They have exciting and ambitious goals. However, that’s as far as it goes. Unfortunately, if your face doesn’t fit and you don’t play the game they will find a way to manage you out the business. They have no clear pathway to help enable their sales team and when the going gets tough the support aspect is redundant. They would rather just manage you out the business rather than trying to find out why performance has dropped and how they can support you. One bad month and you are out. (But only if your face doesn’t fit) if it does fit, performance doesn’t matter. Ultimately if you want good flexibility, a few good people and good tech then Storyblok is a great company. But if you want support in growing your career and building your confidence then stay well clear.

Thank you for taking the time to share this. We're glad you valued the flexibility, the team, and the technology — those are things we're proud of. The feedback around career development and performance support is something we take seriously. Building clear enablement pathways for our sales team, particularly at the BDR level, is an active area of focus, and this reinforces why that work matters. We're sorry your experience didn't reflect the level of support we aim to provide. We wish you well.

Pros

I've been really impressed with how Storyblok supports employees and recognizes their work. Many companies talk about positive work cultures, but Storyblok makes it tangible in ways that matter to you and your family. - Promotions are common - Yearly merit-based salary increases - Bonus still mostly filled when we came just under our target - Great PTO with a culture that encourages using it, including thoughtful extras for life events like getting married, moving house, and birthing parent leave (16 weeks).

Cons

None - keep supporting your employees and we'll keep supporting you! USA health insurance coverage for dependents could be better though ;)

Thanks for sharing this—really appreciate the thoughtful note. We’re genuinely glad to hear the support for employees, recognition, and benefits are making a real difference, not just at work but in life outside of it. That’s exactly what we’re aiming for. Also appreciate the specific feedback on US dependent coverage—that’s helpful context as we continue to review and evolve our benefits. And we hear you on the advice to management. As we scale, keeping that “special company” feeling is something we’re very intentional about, even when things get more complex. Thanks again for taking the time to share this.

Pros

The work-life balance was strong, and the off-site meetings were great. I also appreciated the team, the access to useful technology, and the opportunity to work with smart people who cared about doing good work.

Cons

There were a lot of changes in management, which led to frequent changes in goals, priorities, and direction. When I was let go, I was not given a clear reason why or asked for feedback about my experience. That felt very heartless, especially because there was so much heart in the culture while you were there as an employee.
