take ur research out from university to a group of innovative companies - Researcher Almende Employee Review

Opportunities to learn and experience startup culture, with potential for professional growth if toxic management is addressed.

Toxic management can be difficult to deal with. But I recommend trying to work with it for a short period to gain real experience and understand the differences it can make in the future. Unfortunately, there seems to be a lack of a healthy feedback culture in this workplace. As managers were complimenting me on my work to my face while criticizing me behind my back. Additionally, the salary offered is below market standards based on my own research and conversations with other employees. A lot of times people were doing not what they were promised they will.

At Almende you work with smart collegues on very innovative projects. You have ample opportunities to develop your skills. There are more then enough contacts with universities and other research institutes.

You have to be a self starter as there is very little guidance provided. There is not always enough contact with end users.
