      Pros

      Salary slightly above average, Remote work, home office perks.

      Cons

      - Company culture - Obsessed with DEI, more interested in your gender/pronouns than your skills. - Horrible ambiance in work and projects, never a smile or a laugh. - Overly complex infra of their platform and internal IT, no logic, overspending 100k of dollars a month on redundant tooling and no one wants to move, evolve or fix this.

      Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate you taking the time to add this and we’re sad to learn that you didn’t have a positive experience. Diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) is exceptionally important at Camunda, and although all feedback is taken seriously, we do not tolerate any type of discriminatory comments. Negative comments towards gender/identity diversity impede the ability to foster a welcoming, affirming workplace for all and can be considered as workplace bullying and against our anti-harassment and DEI policy. We will continue to be an inclusive employer of choice for all Camundi and are proud of the amazing diversity amongst our team. Additionally, as Humor is part of our F.A.I.T.H. values, it is unfortunate that you did not experience the lighter side of our environment and appreciate you sharing that feedback. Finally, our IT team is continuously working to improve and iterate on their processes and break linearity on previous ways of working. As a scaling start-up, this growth and iteration is part of the experience in a growing and evolving company like ours.

      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.

      Pros

      The people who work at Camunda are, of course, the biggest pro. Benefits are good, as well.

      Cons

      The culture is downright awful. Employee programs have been slashed almost completely - no more retreat, no more regional social gatherings, no time together in person with your teams. Not only that, but the CEO blatantly said Camunda is not the place for job security or work-life balance and if you're looking for that, you can find it elsewhere. People are being laid off left and right. People are fearful for their jobs and I've heard of a lot of team members who are looking elsewhere. The standards that are given when you're hired are sometimes not attainable, especially when there is little to no direction from management. When I started, I had zero training time at all outside of the company onboarding. My team didn't assist at all in helping me learn the ropes- I was just thrown out to the wolves and expected to start projects with no guidance. This tends to be common across multiple teams, as well. A lot of middle management do not know how to run teams and although they go through "people manager training" that doesn't seem to do any good as they're still mostly incompetent.

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. At Camunda, we’re in the midst of a significant transformation, shifting from a product-led company to a high-performing, AI-driven, go-to-market organization. That shift brings challenges, and we don’t shy away from acknowledging them. The intent behind our leadership’s messaging is not to downplay the importance of well-being, but to be transparent about the pace and focus required at this stage of our journey. We don’t see work and life as opposing forces. Instead, we believe meaningful work can be an important part of a fulfilling life. That’s why flexibility remains a core value at Camunda. Our fully remote model is designed to give people the autonomy to work where, when, and how it suits them best. We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best in your next chapter.
