Startup life - werkgeversreview Senior Scientist bij CarboCode

- Great atmosphere - Top quality instruments - Management truly care about creating a group that works together rather than individuals - Flexible working hours - Research lines is quite interesting - Pretty good amount of days off - Good long term compensation - Great Christmas gift <3

- Kinda lost in the middle of nowhere (which I still find attractive to find an affordable place to live)

Salary is good for a young start-up. Diverse backgrounds get a chance.

Toxic workplace. Management has extreme mood swings and is not trustworthy. The place aggregates employees that depend on the job for visa purposes. No proper skill vetting before people are employed. Pretends to be a young start-up but given the size (70+ people) and age (5+ years) it severely lacks professionalism. No HR department. Intransparent funding situation. No interest in staff development. No employee stock option even for early employees. High turnover of staff. CEO philosophy is to fire a percentage people on a regular basis to replace with 'better performing' people. Poor management of external relations.
