Minpunten
Their cultural values are disingenuous. A lot of lip service is paid to how important the values are, and people will cite to them when they are useful, but leadership will ignore them when they are not helpful to them on some issue. As other reviews have mentioned, be wary of all the 5 star reviews on here. They will push you to write a positive review very early in your tenure. The vibe can be quite cult-y, which some people definitely appreciate and is helpful if you are fully bought in to the company, but it feels very exclusionary if or when you ever make a mistake. Below market compensation, especially on equity. Individual performance metrics can be very unclear and vague, and goalposts will shift so that it’s very hard to measure how you’re doing. This feels intentional, and it lets them get rid of you at a moment’s notice when budgets change, priorities change, etc. Very little room for error or improvement. The alternative data world is a very crowded space, with lots of well-funded competitors. Some teams are incredibly burnt out and understaffed, and leadership does not prioritize their well-being. Your customers are highly demanding and aggressive financial institution clients like hedge funds. There is extreme pressure related to this, and it bleeds down through the org. Not an environment for everyone.
