Hello, we're sorry to see you haven't had a positive experience with us so far. As we continue experiencing hypergrowth, we certainly do have high targets. We've recently been working on changing the structure of our training and goal-setting based on similar feedback, as we aim to provide a great employee experience for each member of the Personio team. If you'd like to continue this conversation and provide more detail to help us continue to improve, I'd be happy to do so. Please feel free to email me at Cassandra.Hoermann@personio.de.

Pros

Smart collaborative colleagues at the lower IC levels.

Cons

Personio is a dying company. The over-complexity of the company's technical systems is comical. Every attempt to simplify seems to lead to more complexity as things get half migrated and left to rot. Engineering leadership seems clueless and unable to present a clear plan-of-action to get things on track. Principal engineers force engineering time to be spent on silly projects that don't move the needle long-term. There is an overall aversion to taking the time to learn deeply about systems being used. Personio feels like a combination of all of the negatives of both a startup and a mature tech company, with none of the positives. The tech is half assed and duct taped together, but still somehow everything moves at a glacial pace. There is a mass shared delusion at the company that an IPO is in reach. No investor is going to buy this company's junk shares on the open market.
