Pros

Made some lifetime friends while working here and was able to get a good introduction to AP related work.

Cons

In the end the main issue was that there was just too much work for one person to do. For years you will be told "it will get better" but while you're waiting the things you are responsible will increase exponentially. If you report the disparities of the workloads you are often met with excuses that "people work at different speeds" or that work is being done on an invisible level that you don't get to see. Training consisted mostly of vague example workshops, shadowed customer calls, and attending lots of internal meetings that were above your level of understanding. It's a slow going process to be "brought up to speed" with some taking 4-6 months before being allowed to actually get their own workload. Pay is very low comparatively to what just about anyone is offering for the same level of work. If you are looking to try out something new you won't notice this but if you are seasoned you better look elsewhere for competitive pay.

Pros

Leadership treats everyone equally, seeks ideas from every level, has a gritty get it done teamwork attitude, believes in growing the individual as part of the team, provides a ton of transparency about strategy and plans, and trusts the employees. We win and celebrate and grow as a team and have so much fun together. Symbeo has a strong reputation and presence in the P2P/fin-tech ecosystem, has a very cool and unique product, is growing fast, and has happy customers which makes you feel proud to work for them. Exciting times!

Cons

None - just a really awesome company with a bright and fast growing future.

Pros

None to list. There used to be some. Most are long gone.

Cons

The company has no direction and completely lacks leadership from the C-suite who has taken on all managerial roles after the termination of all middle management. The results of which are so detrimental that the environment there has become quite toxic and subsequently, customers fled at an alarming rate. Business strategies and new initiatives have failed. Furthermore, the C-suite is entrenched with several long time employees who have little accountability to anyone and way to much unchecked power, and the people who actually built and nurtured the company to thrive are long gone, so there's very little if any institutional knowledge left. What is left seems to be hoarded and not shared to the benefit of the organization. Imagine folks try to save a sinking ship with duct tape and incantations. That's what it's like.
