Pros

- Growth and Learning Opportunities: Camunda invests in employee development, encouraging continuous learning and career advancement. There have been quite a few cases of people advancing their careers by not only getting promoted but also moving into open roles in other teams / departments. Training programs and manager mentorship is available to improve professional skills. - Supportive Culture: The company fosters a collaborative atmosphere, filled with talented and humble individuals. Significant team achievements are celebrated. Management is open to feedback, and personal check-ins create a space for honest conversations about our roles and goals. - Impactful Work: Working at Camunda allows me to contribute to complex projects that add value to the advancement of our team, colleagues and ultimately our customers. The emphasis on all employees being proactive and taking responsibility as "Manager of One" makes me feel empowered and makes my efforts at work meaningful. - Positive Work-Life Balance: The company’s remote work philosophy that allows for flexible scheduling and asynchronous collaboration contribute to a healthy work-life balance, which I believe is crucial for employee satisfaction.

Cons

The reality of the intense competitive environment we are in means that the company and all of us working here need to move faster and up-level our performance in order to achieve the ambitious company goals. Camunda is on a mission to define the process and AI orchestration category and therefore there is a need to move swiftly. However, this kind of dynamic, high-growth setting is not unique to Camunda as it is often found in organizations operating at the forefront of their field.

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.
