Pros

Free lunches once a week, coffee and snacks. Pizza every Friday.

Cons

- Way too many politics at all levels of the company. - Focus is not on people but on getting things done no matter what. - What is being marketed and advertised as an "ideal" contemporary company and what really exists and takes place daily are two very different things.

Having gone through fast growth in the last few years, we appreciate that there are many opportunities for continuous improvement in N26. And when it comes to feedback, we’re all ears. It would be great to dig a bit deeper with you to understand where we can work together to change things, and to hear your ideas on the things you want to see made better. Beyond our engagement survey, which we run on a quarterly basis, we also have an Employee Experience team whose sole focus is on our people. We would love it if you got in touch so that we can keep the conversation going.

Pros

Small team in NYC working on bringing N26 to the US. Flat team structure (no bureaucracy or painful hierarchies). Open lines of communication and instant feedback loops. Everyone is extremely smart and driven towards a common goal, and we also enjoy each other's company both in and out of the office. There's also respect for having a life outside of work and a good sense of balance. Huge opportunity to take on as much work as you can handle and drive your own workstreams and outputs. I've found that my scope of responsibilities is quite large, and since joining, I've broadened my skill-set significantly in areas I wanted to expand upon.

Cons

Coordination with Berlin can be difficult at times given time zones and hypergrowth there. Nonetheless, people always are willing to help out and make themselves available when needed. Small team size as of now means fewer hands to help with all that needs to get done. That said - plenty of opportunity for new joiners to take on key tasks and responsibilities as we continue to grow the team
