Pros

Aiven offers the opportunity to join a fast paced team leading the way on focussed transformation for success. The opportunity for the Aiven platform and capabilities is huge and for maximising. Adding experience into and gaining experience in Aiven is constantly rewarding. This is an environment where you are supported to perform your role and reach realistic goals. The culture is threaded through the business, Openness, Courage and Ownership. These are demonstrated daily. Aiven takes the employee opinions very seriously and with polls, touch points and feedback sessions regularly. Workshops often take place to resolve. As well as company benefits Aiven supports individual learning and provides budget in addition to company trainings. Aiven stays true to full company culture and runs an annual company event where each function comes together over the space of a few days each year. Joining Aiven in 2023 has been a journey I am still enjoying. Work hard, play hard culture.

Cons

Gaining market share and awareness cannot come quick enough. Joining a company during a transformation can be hard on the people that have been here a long time. That said I mostly see people thrive thus far.

Pros

Decent salary, good international travel opportunities, interesting and kind colleagues

Cons

Executive leadership has no vision or appetite to stick to a plan. Despite hiring many people with the experience and skillset to win, leadership routinely ignores advice from within the house, over-commits to half-baked plans, assigns the wrong people to tasks, and then is unwilling to take accountability for continuously failing to deliver anything new.
