Great company, weak management

Pros

Great company and culture. Very open and relaxed environment where you get complete ownership of your work

Cons

- There is a very weak management structure, and unfortunately they feel management is only for top down communication, and not interested in hearing how employees feel. - Little / no training or coaching

Great company to work for!

Pros

At Adyen you get a lot of freedom to take responsibility and do your thing. You can really influence the project you are working on in a positive way. My colleagues are great and everybody is willing to help one another. Being part of an organization that is one of the fastest growing companies at the moment is for me an amazing experience.

Cons

You do not get a lot of guidance in the start, so you really need to take ownership yourself. This should be something you feel comfortable with, else you should choose a different organization.

Working hard, having fun

Pros

Adyen is growing much faster than the market, has a very interesting development/sales-driven culture, and very happy customers. Relatively relaxed, but goal driven, flat organizational culture. Good, solid, smart, but not always "on-trend" technical and commercial choices. Multiple interesting office locations around the world. Talented, competent and nice colleagues without too much dead-weight. Lots of internal opportunities for professional growth, available to anyone who is prepared to reach for it. For an agile company, nearly everyone has a sustainable work/life balance - probably the Dutch influence. I like the company's stated values, which seem shared by most people who work there.

Cons

The Amsterdam office is more techie than some of the other sites, and there isn't much after-work socialization, as new starter it's not as social as other international businesses. (Overseas offices seem to have more fun together) The business is growing fast and everyone gets hit by the growth pains at some point - either organizationally or trying to get priorities set. Effectiveness and avoidance of technical debt is valued more than current fashion, so introducing new tech requires dedication and a good story, not just "I want to play with this and bring it into production".
