Growing Pains but Worth It

Pros

Great remote first culture. Every tech stack you could really want to get the job done. Great market leading product. The CEO & Chief of Staff really LISTEN and care. Benefits are wonderful, from health, to 401k and much more. Pay is great for the U.S.

Cons

With growth comes pains... we have a lot of new hires & people exiting, which is normal for this type of start up in the midst of a high amount of growth. The toxic leader I believe everyone else posted about is officially gone, so that con is now eliminated.

Gross top-down lack of experience and judgement

Anonymous employee

Pros

Most Camundi are good to very good, trying their best and working hard against the odd. Mature remote working practice inc async collaboration (within teams, maybe less across departments?). Compensation is good, on par with market (US at least) though equity is way below market (even for European HQ scaleup (at this rate might not worth much anyway, so not something to join or stay for).

Cons

Competent Camundi (even C-level) have been let go in H1 with muddy reasons. Ohers have left of their own choice (from what I'm hearing many are wondering if it's really worth staying). Churn is very high, it doesn't help. Top-down lack of experience and judgement shows everyday. F.ex. Camino promoted to SLT but removed from the org less than 6 month later. For a company aiming to be pragmatic and numbers driven, we're now driven by fear and politics with no credible exit. Oh... and People Team stop gaming the system by asking your brownies to post nice reviews, fix moral, trust, equity... instead.

Our goal to lead the PO&A category has been consistent, and we have been responsive to economic and technological shifts, ensuring that we build a product that delivers meaningful impact with the highest benefits for both current and future customers. We recognize that our equity program is unique and not always well understood. We will continue investing in education so employees can better understand the full scope of their total rewards. We respect people’s privacy when they leave Camunda and don’t comment on individual departures. We welcome all kinds of feedback, positive, constructive, or critical and we do not ask anyone to post anything that isn’t authentic. We’re committed to building a Camunda where people are empowered to speak up and feel heard.
