Pluspunten

A lot of friendly colleagues that actually want to build something good.

Minpunten

The company is run like a military dictatorship where HR runs around closing slack channels of people raising their concerns about any issues. Everything is censored and there are few means of communicating with your colleagues. Women new joiners are celebrated on LinkedIn by the company's account. Later, they are fired during their probation period for not being "technical enough", which is basically a code word for women. There is no serious audit or compliance happening at the company which is a serious threat to their customer's personal data. All ranks are held by white men. Engineering culture is non-existent. Obedient mediocrities hold the highest positions.

Pluspunten

There are some genuinely nice people here but that is the only real positive. Even they are slowly leaving because the culture has become too toxic to stay in.

Minpunten

Highly political culture with no real promotions. Leadership is insecure, ego driven, and more focused on protecting themselves than supporting employees. Micromanagement is constant, communication is poor, and priorities shift without explanation. Quiet layoffs happen with no transparency and usually protect the same small group. The new US marketing lead has made the culture even worse. He was difficult to work with before and has only become more problematic in a higher role. There is constant questioning, no clear vision, and nonstop steering that sends teams in circles. It is hard to understand how he keeps moving up the ladder despite repeated negative scores and consistent employee feedback. Independent analysis, including the Grizzly Research report, highlights similar issues such as unstable leadership, lack of direction, and a business that feels like it is declining. What the report describes matches what employees experience inside the company. Even if the CEO or HR choose to ignore these problems, they remain the reality employees deal with every day.
