Candela - Xx Candela Technology Employee Review

Good colleagues that make the shift a bit better

Terrible management, teamleaders yelling at new joiners for making mistakes, layoffs every year and the COO's don't last more than a year without getting fired

It's a fantastic and very fun place to be. Candela is transforming waterborne transport with electric hydrofoiling vessels that are efficient, fast, and sustainable. The technology is impressive—reducing energy use by 80% compared to traditional boats while offering a smooth, quiet ride. As a sales manager, I see strong customer interest because these vessels solve real problems: lower operating costs, reduced emissions, and better passenger experience. The company culture is driven, collaborative, and mission-focused. Leadership is engaged, and the team is highly skilled. If you’re looking for meaningful work in cutting-edge technology, Candela is a great place to be.

You become engaged in your work, so you don’t always stick to a 40-hour week—often, it’s more. But the'res a flexibility from the employer's side and work-life balance even out in the end, strangely enough.
