Pluspunten

- Decent compensation - Work life balance is ok and depends on your team. US, credit, and mobile teams have the most intense workload (from my point of view) - Good budget for learning and development - Codebase is ok, could be better but devex and platform have been working to improve the experience

Minpunten

- Random decisions from the leadership team - Feedback is sought but it doesn't seem to have any impact on decisions - Attrition is heavy, average tenure is 1 year at most and people leave because it becomes apparent that the product has no direction and we will keep building features without any customer feedback - Have seen small layoffs and rescinding offers based on board meeting outcomes in my time here. A year back since investors wanted lower cost an offer was rescinded after confirmation, recently a small group of people were laid off as part of reorganisation. So please be aware and ready to start interviewing if you are joining here. - As mentioned in other reviews, CEO seems to have a toxic mindset. He has just lifted some principles and jargon from FAANG companies as well as some books and then parrots the same lines in all hands meetings. He does not realise (or does not care) that the same principles don't always apply as Curve is one millionth the scale and size of those companies. - The CEO once mentioned that he is successful and so knows at what amount of work employees will burnout and he will never let that happen. The arrogance of this statement should tell you about the psyche of the person. - The tone of the answers in all-hands meetings is condescending and dismissive.
