Pros
- Transparency from founders and exec team, sharing the lows and the highs weekly. Every colleague is approachable, no matter the title. - An incredibly talented team that aims to support each other sincerely - A learning opportunity to see how a well-functioning SaaS business operates from a startup phase to maturing into a leading tech company globally. - Perks are generous, ranging from meal and transport allowance, development budget and access to the Udemy learning platform, all company events in Munich for three days, and many more.
Cons
- Being part of a hyper-growth company means you must consistently deliver strong results, and this expectation might lead to stressful phases if not managed right. - Quality of some management could be better regarding coaching and inspiring. The good point is that these receive upward feedback reviewed by their managers. - Some colleagues with no previous work experience or coming from big-name companies negatively influence in some cases other colleagues with an approach that "the company must satisfy all my desires, and if not I complain badly and loud". This led to the misunderstanding of expectations on what work should be, and I saw cases where negative toxic ones dragged down motivated colleagues.
