Pros

- Creative office space - 10-year-old company

Cons

Each employee is micromanaged, irrespective of seniority or experience. There is no employee orientation for new personnel - they are expected to start off the bat immediately. 70% of positive reviews on this website are dictated by the management and senior management writes them to combat the negative reviews. Response to this review will also be highly negative and dismissive because the management does not believe they can do anything wrong or make mistakes and the owner believes everyone's out to get him. The management has God complexes and has let power get to their heads. Do not take the senior management's fancy words at face value. You will be made grand promises only for them to backtrack on their convenience. If you are thinking of joining, have everything in writing and ask for a contract to be signed with the offer letter. This company is very trigger happy and likes to fire people within a matter of a few days/weeks/months. People are not given a chance to prove themselves adequately and judged prematurely. Visas are not applied for on day one as dictated by labor law. The owner likes playing the good guy and delegates unpleasing tasks to his subordinates so he can maintain his reputation. Ultimately though, he makes all the calls. My advice would be to stay away from this place and if you must join then have a backup ready.

Pros

Pros? To be fair, they have a creative space and they play music. Employees are good, but management is just hell.

Cons

Join BeUnique if you're up for some high stress levels, a management who digs into your personal life, threats, nonsense drama, underappreciated work, and a CEO who thinks he is some god... I do recommend this company if you could go through the gates of hell.

Pros

There is No Pros, look at majority of reviews as well.

Cons

1. I was called at 12 PM and asked to come to interview at 2 PM. (My travel time alone was an hour), that too I was new to Dubai and didn't know the area. I somehow managed to reach on time, but was called after a 30 minutes wait. 2. During interview, with some questions, I was asked to work for 2 days as a trial, I accepted, as I knew my work. 3. I asked for a laptop, because the laptop provided to me was very old, and to open something it took 15 minutes. He said, if I can go back home and bring my own laptop(2 hours travel). 4. I was new to Dubai, didn't know the area or commute. So, the second day of trial I came in 5 minutes late, but I called him and informed that I am on my way. 5. After the trial is over, I got a text saying that he was very upset I came late and so he is not sure about my employment. (Which world do you live in?) 6. Finally with so many follow ups from my side, he said okay, he is ready to give a chance. 7. On my first day, he again gave that crappy laptop and asked to work. I somehow managed to work, thinking it will become better later on. 8. Mid day, I asked the HR or whoever it was that said handle these things about the visa and offer letter. He/She said it usually takes few months to get the employment visa (I know very well, with all proper documents it takes a week or max 2 weeks). 9. And I was explained about the nonsense rules of the company, which was really toxic. And the person said to me off record that, if you leave on time for many days, they will fire you. 10. One more thing was mentioned "Be Unique takes much time to hire a person, but can fire in an instant". (This is not something you say to a new hire or anyone). 11. End of day, it was 5 PM, no one left, 6PM, 7PM, still employees are in the office. So, I finally went and asked if I can leave( it is an hour travel back for me). He asked all the details of my work and when I asked about my Contract/Offer letter, his tone changed and I clearly understood he had no intention to give it to me soon. 12. YOU GIVE AN EMPLOYEE OFFER LETTER, HE ACCEPTS AND THEN HE STARTS TO WORK. They need to learn this. 13. Very low salary as well. When I asked, he said I am ready to give you as much as you want, that's not a concern for me, but I want you to prove yourself. (All I could do is laugh inside at this type of salary negotiation). Thank God, I decided not to go back again, and that was one of the best decisions I ever made. Company looked dull, and looking at so many other reviews I realised that the management is toxic and consider themselves above all.
