Pluspunten

I never found a single one

Minpunten

Youth is valued above everything including experience, to a shocking degree. Case in point, there is at least one head of a department that had not one single day of experience or education in the field, prior to being hired. This person fired almost every single educated/certified professional that was in the department and replaced them with people under 35 years of age.

Pluspunten

Well run company and engineering department. Nice and supportive coworkers. It's a company that has a mission and really believes in it and it's ability to improve people's lives. Opportunity to travel to work with others and to experience the African markets the company operates in.

Minpunten

Engineering is fully remote, which can be a little isolating. That said, people are always willing to jump on a call. Pay is on the low side.

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are glad to hear that you've had a positive experience so far. It's also great to know that the opportunity to travel and experience our operating markets has been a valuable part of your experience. While remote work offers flexibility, we understand it can come with challenges, and we're glad you've found team members willing to connect when needed. We understand that compensation is an important part of the employee experience and appreciate you sharing your perspective. If you have concerns about your compensation, we encourage you to discuss them with your manager, who can provide additional context on compensation decisions and growth opportunities within your role. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts.

Hi, and thanks for sharing. If you ever have concerns or feel that your workload is becoming overwhelming, please feel free to discuss with your manager in order to provide the support you need. On feedback, we already have suggestion boxes in some of our operating countries. We encourage you to check in with your People Ops lead for more information on how you can share your ideas or concerns.
