Pros

The collaborative robotics space is growing at over 50% CAGR - the most exciting field in Automation these days. UR leads this field and it's exciting to be a part of such massive growth, year on year.

Cons

Like any fast growing company, it comes with it's share of bumps and bruises - only to be expected.

Thanks for your feedback. I think this is some great insights for future colleagues to have on how it is to be part of the UR family. And great advice that we have to remember for management to maintain a close connection with the employees even as we grow bigger.

Pros

Modern and inviting cafeteria facilities. Strong colleagues across teams who genuinely work hard to make things succeed despite the challenges.

Cons

The workload is significantly high and not aligned with available resources. Limited communication and low transparency from SMT, which creates unnecessary uncertainty across the organization. Frequent strategic shifts result in a reactive environment rather than a long-term, predictable direction. Too many critical tasks rest on a small group of employees, creating a real risk of burnout and future turnover among top performers. The parent company plays an outsized role in decision-making and has absorbed the most important positions, leading to heavy, old-fashioned operational structures. The culture is dominated by a “do more with less” mindset that limits innovation and renewal. The company needs a genuine strategic reboot, not another iteration of the same old approach.
