Pros
-I am not that old, but I can be seen old here :) A lot of motivated junior staff, willing to do a lot just to get a grasp of the "few" experienced employees - The Fin-Tech culture exposure before Corona (Company lunches, free snacks and beers, impressive Christmas party, lots of interactions between employees, etc.) - In theory the go-get it attitude, allowing you to introduce a lot of ideas, but getting ownership and enforcing responsibility and accountability... is a different topic. - Diversity and Inclusion is very well lived in the company. Lots of effort put into it.
Cons
- A lot of turnover from experienced staff, due to lack of power and respect to the financial industry knowledge. Less senior roles in other parts of the organization... the fluctuations are too high so you don't even know when it happens. - Implementation and decision making is often limited to Product and Tech, others are seen as overheads. That not always follows with where the industry and regulatory knowledge is... - Hard for me to consider it as a long-term career opportunity. More of a career PR stunt and more Linkedin exposure.
