Pros

We had a good team Reasonable work life baalance

Cons

With new CEO the company has made a huge leap back on almost every aspect since last year Majority of strong senior engineers are gone due to the poor managerial decisions, solving wrong problems in a terrible and disrespectful way - CEO and CTO have effectively destroyed some highly performing teams The company is not learning from their mistakes, moreover they repeat the same mistakes continuously Engineering processes are highly ineffective and the management is not interested in fixing that Lack of trust and other dysfunctions all over the plate, will most likely set even talented employees for failure from day one Happn is reinventing itself every few months without any success - still lack of vision and values defined

Get ready to be fired anytime

Pros

- We had a good team - Work-life balance

Cons

Be ready, that one day you, your teammates, and other ppl (around 10% of the company) can be fired just because you are no longer convenient for the company. Even if you just joined the company. If you are interested in that kind of uncertainty, stress, and unexpected surprises then this place is for you:) If there are any other options, just avoid this place of work

Pros

you work on a recognisable product

Cons

After the big sexual harassment scandal Happn still hasn't figured out how to make a good working environment. Prepare to be discriminated on base of the language you use and forget about personal growth. The company has no vision for growth and doesn't care about the employees. There are a few ambitious people, who do most of the work and a lot of overtime, but the majority doesn't contribute much, other that spending hours on pointless meetings. Things are very chaotic and disorganised and the management blames the non-french speaking employees for its communication problems. This is not a modern company, that employs agile management - they say they do, but in reality it's all words and work is extremely inefficient and ineffective. I would not recommend this company to anyone
