Pros

Freedom. There's little to no real control on how much or less you do. Good parties! The general startup free food stack.

Cons

Lack of guidance and vision. Focus on growth without any real direction. Management is very bad in general, focusing on reducing costs in salaries but then wasting millions on bad processes and decisions. Sinking ship with a very high turnover. No clear responsibility and process around the company.

We urge that you reach out to the People Team Portal if you want to continue this offline or you can propose a question at our monthly Founders Q&A session which is open to everyone.

Pros

Small team in NYC working on bringing N26 to the US. Flat team structure (no bureaucracy or painful hierarchies). Open lines of communication and instant feedback loops. Everyone is extremely smart and driven towards a common goal, and we also enjoy each other's company both in and out of the office. There's also respect for having a life outside of work and a good sense of balance. Huge opportunity to take on as much work as you can handle and drive your own workstreams and outputs. I've found that my scope of responsibilities is quite large, and since joining, I've broadened my skill-set significantly in areas I wanted to expand upon.

Cons

Coordination with Berlin can be difficult at times given time zones and hypergrowth there. Nonetheless, people always are willing to help out and make themselves available when needed. Small team size as of now means fewer hands to help with all that needs to get done. That said - plenty of opportunity for new joiners to take on key tasks and responsibilities as we continue to grow the team
