Pros

Work/Life balance is really good. Management tries to be as transparent as they can. You can feel that you are part of the job

Cons

Last year they messed up their business management and failed to set a clear roadmap. The stress was felt by everyone. There was a massive layoff and many people left their jobs. There is huge uncertainty within the company.

Dear O-lumni member, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad you appreciated the work-life balance, that you felt part of the company, and that you recognize the focus on transparency. The last year has, just like for many other young companies, been very challenging. As part thereof, we had to make very difficult decisions in the beginning of the year that had a direct impact on our employees. While we always tried to do that with utmost care for the affected people (as well as the people staying) we fully realize these decisions are hard to get by. We have tried to be very transparent about the reasons for downsizing our teams and are very much focused on improving the positive environment and focus on the well-being and general morale of our employees. Thank you again for sharing, People team

Dear alumni O-member, Thank you for sharing your feedback and thank you for your work with us. :) We're glad to read you were able to get a lot of experience and exposure and we hope that was a plus for your future experiences. Regarding the layoffs, unfortunately, the last year has, just like for many other young companies, been very challenging.
