Pros

Nice and international team Few cool benefits like 30 days of holidays and a nice pension plan

Cons

Everything since Visa bought the company. The integration is not done and only serving a few (management). The majority of the company is completely left out and they don't care as soon as the management is happy and getting higher positions No career plan or development possibilities for the employees New management hires are just not good enough sometimes without even industry knowledge Very few salary augmentations since the acquisition

Hi, thank you very much for your feedback. Integrations are never easy and never perfect. They require a lot of energy from everyone involved. We are quite proud of what we have achieved together in less than a year since the acquisition, however, we understand from your feedback that you are dissatisfied. We can only encourage you to make use of our many internal channels to share your concerns and start a conversation, so we can check together if we can do anything to improve things for you. Reach out to your manager, to HR, or if you do not feel comfortable with that, you can always talk confidentially with our internal coaches. Thank you very much and we hope to continue this conversation.

Pros

- Great culture and people - Lots of opportunities for personal growth due to the size of the company and the fast pace of change - Work from home - As a team you can create and drive in-house projects - Developers decide on the technology stack being used, which usually results in the selection of the cutting edge technologies - Good hiring process in place which enables the company to hire the best people - Regular feedbacks - open-minded CEO and CTO who listen to employees

Cons

- Salary and benefits could be better - Sometimes work (scoping, clear boundaries etc.) can feel chaotic due to the nature of the company, but those things are usually quickly addressed. On the other hand that chaos provides the opportunity to bring your own expertise and ideas.

Pros

You really feel like a part of a team and can feel how everyone's work contributes to the end goals of the company. Working here, you do make a difference. Other than that, free German courses, hardware/software, fruits & coffee, amazing office space and even better company events! A huge plus is that there really is a flat hierarchy.

Cons

I wouldn't say it's a big Kontra, but still worth mentioning - sometimes there is a need for overtime work. However nobody forces you to stay longer and the work time is quite flexible - you can arrive later or earlier and leave accordingly if there are no meetings. Yeah, and the coffee is only OK. But new coffee machine is arriving soon!
