Why We’ve Stayed: Celebrating Work Anniversaries at Younium
What Does It Mean to Stay?
In today’s fast-moving world, staying with a company for years—three, five, or even seven—isn’t just a number. It’s a story. A story of challenge, connection, purpose and growing together. This spring, we are excited to celebrate the work anniversaries of nine incredible team members, whose milestones reflect trust built, lessons learned, and memories made 🎉
We asked these long-tenured colleagues to share their thoughts on their journey in the Youniverse—to explore what makes staying here meaningful for them. Their answers were honest, thoughtful, and full of heart.
🛠️ Building Something Together 🤝
Some of our long-tenured team members have been with Younium since the early days, others joined along the way, but all have played a key role in shaping our success and the culture that defines who we are today.
"I joined Younium because I saw it as a company that strikes the right balance between stability and challenge through change, offering opportunities for growth. I had also heard great things about the company from my network." - Dragana, Senior Project Manager
“Taking on the challenging journey with a small startup to ensure quality standards would be met was an exciting opportunity.” - Andrzej, SaaS Quality Assurance Senior Specialist
"I liked the idea of being part of something from the beginning, building things up, and taking on real challenges where I could make a difference. [...] It's been a fun and exciting journey to see the company grow ” - Johan, Back-End Developer

[...] The fact that we’re constantly growing as a company makes it almost become a new company every year, which means facing new challenges and opportunities all the time which is an environment I truly thrive in.” - Joel, Head of Solutions
These stories reflect a shared appreciation for making a difference — because at Younium, every contribution is truly valued.


🌱 Growing and Learning💡
At Younium, there’s always room to learn and evolve, which has been a key factor in keeping our team engaged and motivated. Several of our work anniversary celebrants mentioned how much they value the chance to work on diverse projects, and face challenges that push them to grow both personally and professionally.

“I think my favorite memories are all these little moments of success and growth over the years, company and personal, that makes the memories – a large project launch, signing the biggest customer, successfully trying new ways and overcoming challenges – when I come to think of it it’s really all the times where we’ve come together as a team and succeeded.” - Joel
“My biggest growth moment was probably when I changed my role to Head of IT security and focused on keeping the company compliant with the security certifications previously acquired.” - Marvin, Cloud Operation manager & Head of Security

Last but not least, a strong, supportive culture and a sense of shared purpose have made the journey meaningful for so many of our team members—and are a big part of why they stayed.
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with kind, talented, and supportive colleagues, and have made some great friends too - which has been especially important to me as I was pretty new to Sweden when I joined Younium.
