Pluspunten

Few advantages except base salary

Minpunten

My experience at Payhawk over the past year has been nothing short of tumultuous and deeply unsatisfactory. The consistently toxic corporate culture, characterized by arbitrary changes in commission structures, a reduction in leave entitlements through contract modifications, and an abrupt ban on home remote, has created an environment of chronic disruption and instability. The CEO's decisions and communication style have been not only erratic but also detrimental to overall morale, fostering an undeniably toxic workplace ambiance. Despite a few learning opportunities, the pervasive lack of transparency, stability, and effective communication has contributed to an overwhelmingly negative and toxic experience during my time at Payhawk.

Thank you for your review. We acknowledge that many significant changes occurred during your time at Payhawk and that this can sometimes be disorienting, confusing, and frustrating. However, this is a consequence of our fast growth, and we continue to invest significant effort into navigating through our growth trajectories in the best possible way for our employees. We acknowledge that the contract modifications we made in a small number of locations were unsettling and frustrating. This was a necessary consequence of our growth into new territories and registration of new business entities. When migrating employees to new employment contracts, where possible, we applied equal benefits to all global employees, which we believe to be fair. In the case of paid annual leave, we provide all global employees with 30 days, which is more than the industry average. In 2023 we temporarily adjusted our work-from-home benefit in certain locations to ensure fairness and equal distribution in all locations. Currently, all employees have access to the following work flexibility benefits: Work From Home (WFH): Employees are allowed to work from home for four days per month. Exceptional WFH: Managers can grant additional work-from-home days in exceptional cases (e.g. family reasons, transport issues). Work from Anywhere (WFA): Employees have 12 days per year to work from anywhere in the world. Hawks and Travel: Employees can spend 1 week per year in another Payhawk office of their choice, with a budget paid by Payhawk of up to 1800 EUR. Finally, in addition to the feedback provided above, I would appreciate the opportunity to have a more in-depth conversation with you to understand your experience and concerns about the culture. Such feedback is very important to us. Please feel free to reach out via people-partners@payhawk.com

Pluspunten

Working at Payhawk means being part of a fast-moving scaleup where growth comes naturally if you take ownership. Responsibility isn’t something that’s handed down slowly — it’s there from day one, and those who embrace it quickly see opportunities to grow their impact and career. One of the biggest strengths of Payhawk is the team. You get to work alongside highly skilled and motivated colleagues who set the bar high, and that makes every day a chance to learn and improve. The company is deeply data-driven, which means decisions are based on facts and outcomes rather than opinions or politics. That clarity helps us focus on the right priorities and move fast. Innovation isn’t just encouraged — it’s expected. Every day brings new challenges, and you have both the chance and the duty to find creative solutions that shape how we scale. At the same time, Payhawk takes care of its people: the salary and benefits package is extremely fair, and the culture makes sure that everyone — no matter their role or title — has a voice and can influence the direction of the company.

Minpunten

As a scaleup in a highly competitive market, Payhawk is not the place for people who want to lean back and ride the wave. It requires energy, ownership, and resilience — but for those who thrive in that kind of environment, it’s a very rewarding place to be.
