Pros

This review is for the Hoofddorp office specifically, previously known as GlobalCollect. Things are getting better under the new french management, they have a vested interest in making this transaction work and have contributed to a more positive attitude in the office. There are some truly solid staff and management here.

Cons

There are still some completly incompetent managers who were promoted by the previous management to stack the board. These managers are undermining moral by micromanaging situations they don't understand and are exposing the company to potential dangers. I'm not saying people need to be fired or others would be better in those positions, but some are just way over their head and have no idea how to manage people or projects, making them wholly inappropriate for their positions. Until a full review of the company hierarchy and reorganization has taken place, I would stay away! I'm glad I'm out.

Pros

Supportive team members who are willing to answer questions and provide guidance. The environment offers valuable insight into how large scale payment systems operate, which is beneficial for anyone interested in fintech or enterprise technology.

Cons

The internship-to-full-time pipeline lacks structure and transparency. Interns were told entry level roles would open, but timelines and follow through were unclear, leaving many in extended intern positions without defined conversion pathways. There appears to be an overreliance on long term interns as cost effective operational support rather than investing in structured development and conversion planning. Some interns remain in role well beyond a typical internship cycle, creating uncertainty around long term stability. Communication around hiring forecasts and headcount planning can feel overly optimistic. Expectations may be set publicly, but updates on budget constraints or shifting priorities are not communicated with the same clarity. Career progression for early talent is ambiguous. Without proactive sponsorship and clearly defined benchmarks, interns may struggle to understand what tangible milestones lead to permanent placement.
