Pros

They let you have plenty of remote work

Cons

Salaries are below the job market value. They don't have any onboard training. The CEO questioned my belief system and said I won't be able to do my job because of my beliefs. They appear to be friendly during the trial session but then don't have any team management skills. The CEO mistreats his employees with unclear feedback and negative daily comments.

Hi! Thanks for your review! We are happy to hear that you appreciated our forward-thinking in terms of remote work :) We encourage a culture of open feedback, and are grateful that you took the time out to provide us with that. The more feedback we get, the better we can adjust our style of leadership to the needs of our employees. Regarding you mentioning having your belief system being questioned, I'm afraid I lack the context. What you believe in, or what you do on your free time is absolutely up to you. We'd love to get more insights into this, it must have been a misunderstanding. Again, thanks for sharing your perspective. Best wishes!

Most life-consuming experience I ever had

Software engineer

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

The company offers you condition to work fine, but expects you to just give all your work-time to them.

Cons

Impossible hours. You will be expected to come in from 10 am to 10 pm while working in Berlin, Saturdays included. This does not get better for remote employees; time zones are not respected. Calls and emails at all hours, and you ARE expected to respond. Little to no time off. Day-consuming meetings that will go nowhere. Inconsistent focus on target audience, ideas, and... pretty much everything. Scatter-shot techniques without proper time for anyone to prepare. Constant responsibility whiplash. Because so many people quit, jobs are handed off without much training or, once more, preparation. CEO expects you to just get it anyway.
