Pluspunten

Really challenging project, interesting tasks, a lot of ownership and real impact.

Minpunten

Performance review process was a joke and made many people leave. The culture became toxic, people got silenced and depressed. Crazy owertimes and 'get blamed' culture.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad the work itself, the ownership, the challenge and impact felt meaningful. That’s the experience we want everyone to have. Proxima is working on one of the hardest engineering challenges humanity has ever attempted, and we do believe that requires building a high-performance culture with clear standards and real accountability. We also know that this environment isn't the right fit for everyone, and we respect that. We talk about this openly during our interviews and let people decide if this is the right place for them. Thank you for your time with us and your contributions.

Pluspunten

What I value most was the technical depth of the tasks . The team’s expertise and team collaboration made the experience truly enriching.

Minpunten

Ambitious storytelling on the outside, but slow technical advancement on the inside. Many colleagues are exhausted, and constructive criticism often stayed unspoken. It reinforced for me how essential realistic planning and psychological safety workplaces are for any organization that wants to build more than a narrative. When the vision and capabilities drift too far from what is realistically achievable creates unnecessary pressure and limits the potential of the great people doing the work.It can happen that a hype is followed by a hard reality check.

Thank you for your time with us and sharing your thoughts. We’re glad the technical depth and the people around you made it worthwhile. Building the fastest growing fusion company in Europe in just three years is something we're proud of and don't take lightly. We’re upfront about the intensity from the first interview. Challenge and open conversation are things we actively encourage in our communication. We want people to push back, flag problems early, and say the hard things. We are sorry if this is not the experience you had, and we’re grateful for being part of this.

Pluspunten

Working at Proxima is like joining a ship already breaking through the atmosphere—challenging, inspiring, and quietly transformative. You grow fast because you must, surrounded by people who dream in equations and act with purpose. The pace is sharp, the bar is high, and the work leaves you feeling that you’re part of something that genuinely matters.

Minpunten

But intensity is the entrance fee. Things move quickly, change suddenly, and demand more than comfort. You need to enjoy uncertainty, adapt without hesitation, and stay centered in the middle of fast turns and unknowns. It’s not an easy ride—but for those who choose it, it’s unforgettable.
