Pros

The plus is the employees here, who are very pleasant to work with.

Cons

High attrition is visible in many teams. It is normal to work in half-staffed teams. Extremely high workload and a very bad work-life balance. Toxic environment with frustrated colleagues. Lack of rewards and recognition. No personal development, no real internal career opportunities. Beware of what you see from the outside. A lot of big words and branding, but it comes with no real content - this employer does not deliver what it promises. I have seen so much disappointment from my colleagues that I would never recommend any of my acquaintances to work here. So many of my colleagues were giving their best to this company and time after time they were not rewarded, they were not recognized, they were not retained. This company is a sweatshop for people aged 25-35, it brings them in from outside of Berlin, chews them well for 2-3 years and then spits them out. Save yourself the disappointment, look for another employer.
