Pros

- feel personally invested because I actually use the app. - great to be part of an organisation which is growing at over 100% year-on-year. - a genuine tech company where the only way of growing at pace is through algorithms, marketing, robotics etc. - global and expanding in Europe and Asia. - large organisation of over 2,000 people maintaining a friendly and high-energy inclusive culture. - culture of transparency where everyone including the CEO shares often confidential updates with the whole organisation. - great onboarding for new joiners.

Cons

- with high-growth can come chaos - focus in 6 months may be completely different to now which is not for everyone

Pros

The company is presented as a young and dynamic environment, at least from an external communication point of view.

Cons

Unfortunately, the internal reality is very different. Career progression mainly favors people who are close to management or who know how to please the right individuals, while meritocracy clearly comes second. Losing valuable employees does not seem to concern upper management at all. Many department heads lack experience and competence, which leads to constant issues, misunderstandings, and organizational problems that directly impact daily work and team morale. The company promotes itself as “young and dynamic,” yet hires employees over 60 whose experience does not appear to be properly assessed or effectively leveraged, creating a strong inconsistency between image and reality. Salaries are not competitive compared to the market. Salary increases and bonuses are very low and demotivating. Benefits are either almost non-existent or purely symbolic.
