Pros

Used to be the retreat where you would meet your peers- that has been cancelled now

Cons

It’s a company that is behaving like a microwaved raccoon on meth: entitled, know-it all, arrogant, bully, unforgiving, ungrateful and mostly never ever stopping demanding. It guarantees you long working hours, changing requirements on responsibilities and results. It will bully you and supervise you in detailed micromanagement to come to a conclusion that - despite knowing 0 of the topic - you’re doing it completely wrong. And yes they will call it “hands-on” mentality that is expected.

Pros

This is a company that is set up for long term success and is striving to be a market leader. The company is on the cusp of achieving big goals.

Cons

Camunda is not a place to work if you would like to keep a work/life balance. The CEO has stated as much. Sure, there is an unlimited time off policy, but it's common to see others working during their vacations. You'll be working on your time off too. Hours are long because there is a high workload assigned to every engineer. You're expected to make meaningful progress on many things all at once with no relief on any of them if you'd like to focus on one task. There's no way anyone could accomplish it all in a normal 40 hour work week. With the amount of workload given to engineers, there is no enhanced compensation to make up for it. Salaries and the equity given are nothing special. Why should an engineer be expected to give so much to the company, when the pay and equity is not better than any other place?
