Pros

Most of us will be gone by the time the real damage is done, so it won't hurt us. Benefits are fair.

Cons

I created this account solely to warn anyone from coming to the Marketing department. We lost ALL of our talent recently. This place is running on last year's inertia, and it's slowing down. I worked for a direct competitor until recently, and as soon as my stock vests I'm out of here. I have never seen such a disorganized marketing function in my entire career. Sales is slightly better. The product is actually quite good, although expensive.

Pros

- A global diverse talented group of people - Very collaborative - Company paid lunch everyday - Hybrid work setup

Cons

- Severely lacking well qualified team leaders - The culture that made Adyen different and successful is rapidly deteriorating in the US market - Hiring a bunch of short sighted transactional minded ex Paypal people who were recently laid off - A lot of infighting - Way too many unnecessary "team" meetings

Pros

Cool offices, lots of nice and talented colleagues. Depending on the department you work for I think you can have a nice career here, but stay away from Merchant Operations.

Cons

Adyen’s formula was turned into this cultish tool to manipulate and bully employees. The formula is taken way to seriously, applied only to the company’s own benefit and according to your manager’s subjective interpretation and interest. I still maintain contact with former colleagues and many months after leaving I see that they are all overworked, unsatisfied and dealing with toxic managers.
