Pluspunten

- Amazing fellow engineers. They are not only very skilled engineers, but also very friendly and supportive. - Flexible working environment and possibility to work remotely.

Minpunten

- Lack of technical and business vision and leadership, no more real CTO (CPO acting as a CTO too). - Engineering department is in constant decline since the previous CTO left. - Senior management leadership treats engineers like a cost. - Culture is rapidly degrading and becoming extremely toxic. - Engineering and product employees are seen as a cost ready to cut down. - Two rounds of redundancies managed terribly. - No financial strategy to make the employees feel safe. Redundancies can happen at any time with a quick email like it already happened twice within a quarter. - The company is in complete chaos with no resolution to that in the near future.

No nonsense kinda guy. - Business is solid and people are working on interesting things. - great culture and great push from all employees - ceo / founder is willing to do what it takes

Minpunten

- complete product vision not fully realized yet but is getting there - other than that pretty decent place

Pluspunten

- Interesting products and opportunities to work with some genuinely talented colleagues. - Flexible remote work options that made balancing personal commitments easier.

Minpunten

- In my experience, the management style often felt harsh, overly critical, and dismissive of employee concerns. This created a culture where it was difficult to feel psychologically safe or respected. - I wasn’t alone in feeling this way; it was evident that others on my team were also under significant stress and morale was consistently low. - I raised these concerns formally with HR, expecting meaningful intervention. In my view, no substantial action was taken, which only deepened the sense that employee wellbeing was not a priority. - Ultimately, the environment had such an impact on my mental health that I required medical treatment to cope. Even after leaving, the effects have stayed with me.
