Pros

Lot of autonomy and a great company to work for. Amazing company culture (and love the food and the barista).

Cons

Because of flat company structure you have to have an entrepreneurial mindset. Nobody is going to tell you how to do your job, you just have to do it and add value to the company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Company has a very bright outlook. Smart, nice, easygoing people to work with. Fun, laid-back environment. Frequent trips to the Amsterdam HQ. Excellent benefits (free lunches, unlimited PTO, fully paid healthcare). Lots of autonomy and control of schedule. Ample on-the-job learning and opportunities to work with some impressive clientele.

Cons

No focus on career development leaves employees stuck in the same role for years and wondering if anything comes next. Zero priority on improving internal business operations or bolstering satellite offices with essential functional departments, which leads to constant operational inefficiencies and frustrations. Mediocre salary and laughable equity compensation compared to peers are leading to retention issues. Dutch-centric culture can be a turn-off.

Pros

Great product. Great CEO. Some nice perks.

Cons

Bad management who don't care about you as an employee. Even if you've been there longer than your manager, your manager thinks they know everything about you and the culture at adyen.
