What's It Like to Work at Akeneo?

Akeneo Employee Reviews

My day is never the same! Some days I'm learning about new features/functionality that really helps my customers achieve their objectives, other days I'm collaborating with colleagues around better ways to engage our customers. Finally, my day is full of meetings with customers who share their positive experiences using our software!

Joe, Customer Success Manager

Akeneo consists of a group of individuals with eclectic backgrounds who have come together in pursuit of solving problems for our customers; we pride ourselves in our “Purple Fire.” My favorite part is the ability to have a positive impact on our customers each and every day whilst working with an intelligent, driven, and benevolent group of people

Julia , Manager, Professional Services

Akeneo is my favorite place to work. The people are incredible humans, the product is best-of-breed, and I’m excited to come to work EVERY SINGLE DAY. We’ve created an invigorated community with our employees, customers, and partners blazing a trail of purple fire, and you should join us too.
