Pros

Feels like a popularity contest than anything else. Passive aggressive C level, can´t trust the CEO.

Cons

Totally different from the startups I have worked with before. Stay away, immature approach to business, and too much financial instability. I have worked there almost two years. It is hard to spot it initially, but you come to see it for what it is, a toxic environment. They are proud of their "culture" which feels more like a high-school pack, where if you want to get integrated, you have to jump through hoops to be liked be the employees with more seniority. And I do not mean they look at the quality of your work, "good enough is ok", but just like in high-school, they are the bullies who decided who is "in" and who is "out". You are rated but how much your colleagues like you, and not by our skills and, by all means, if you don't get friends with the "old ones", rest assured you are excluded, the onboarding is superficial and your entire time there seen suspiciously. A bunch of immature 🙄 people that have never worked in a different company before ....worst culture wrapped in superficiality. Not the mention their HR team, that feed this nonsense culture. They are very proud of their culture, but are far away fro being inclusive.... Feels like a popularity contest than anything else. Good job, continue on this path !;)

Pros

There are some very good team members in the team. Some are very friendly and very good professionals, unfortunately the best ones are never valued.

Cons

Overall, the work environment is very toxic and rife with nepotism. To receive promotions or be appreciated, you need to be friends with the original founding team. It doesn’t matter how hard you work—if they don’t like you, you will never get a salary increase or promotion. The management is very close-minded and toxic. They retain inefficient employees simply because they like them and even promote them. Additionally, they refuse to take responsibility for their faults. Even when receiving low scores in work environment surveys, they blame the employees instead of reflecting on their own behaviour. Complaints are not taken seriously, and raising issues often results in being seen as the problem. There is significant unequal treatment—those within the inner circle enjoy all the benefits, while others are left out entirely. The turnover rate is high, yet management refuses to address it. Employees who leave, whether voluntarily or due to dismissal, are treated poorly. The company rarely provides proper explanations for terminations, and these individuals seem to vanish without acknowledgment. I wouldn’t recommend working here unless you are prepared to spend significant time trying to be friends with the management and the founders. Otherwise, your contributions will likely go unnoticed.
