Pros
Frequent trips and company events Nice product offering with good market reviews There are a lot of amazing individual contributors working at Adyen Relaxed vacation policy
Cons
Take the negative reviews seriously, there's a strong running theme amongst the bad reviews and very apparent once employed. Regardless of which team you join, there is a push to spend your first few weeks doing coffee chats with people at the company. Culture fit is very important for this company, even more so than productivity, if you're not well liked you will not last here. If you're well liked but do no work, you may even be promoted and have a further leash to get away with things. Onboarding sets people up for failure, manager wasn't present at most team meetings or trainings. 1:1s spent in the wrong areas and feedback wasn't actionable. Sales managers are reliant on overseas training to fill the gap. Micromanagement to the point where all emails needed to be prewritten and copy pasted. Unfair, bias reactions of the same behavior from one employee to another. Blatant favoritism. Gossiping even at the management level. Not all managers practice what they preach. Often bad habits are displayed by upper management and learned by newer employee. For example, if the senior members and manager of the team are multi-tasking during meetings, the perception to newer employees is that it's ok. Basically, if they like you, you can get away with murder. If they don't like you, everything is an offense. You will be walking on egg shells because you never know when one thing is suddenly not ok or just a rule that applies to you. Andiamo! Andiamo! Because you're spending too much time building your personal brand vs doing your actual job. For a sales role, there are no metrics. This really means your job security is your relationship with your manager May be a pro or con, but there seems to be more opportunities for horizontal job growth than vertical. Senior members of the organization often complained about salary ceilings
