Pros

- Quick interview process. Apart from me being on holidays, the process takes ~2 weeks - All interviewers throughout the process was super friendly, sincere and treat you with respect. This right away helps you picture the culture of the company - The coding challenge was real world example of working with colleagues, and the interviewer works with you as if you're already in the same team. The code was clean, well structured, but leaves room for improvement and bug fixing that you will work through with your interviewer. - My recruiter Anna, was incredible, she was very understanding, responsive, and collaborative throughout the whole process. I felt like a real person, rather than just a number in the recruitment pipeline

Cons

I don't see any downsides for now

Pros

- optimistic, supportive, and authentic team - work is truly measured in terms of impact, not output - wins are celebrated, losses are seen as learning opportunities (not a chance to point the blame) - strong vision, understanding of the market, and path to success - good pay and benefits

Cons

- lots of change across the business (expected for a company at this stage), but it's rolled out with varying degrees of support and clarity - inclusion for remote employees sometimes feel like an afterthought, or that we won't have as many career opportunities bc we're not in the office

Pros

I joined Personio wanting to do the best work of my career and I feel like I'm close to that, if not there already. My role is challenging without being overwhelming, my manager has loads of experience managing teams like ours, and I'm really happy working with the people on my team every day. On the company level, Personio has strong values, news is communicated honestly and openly, and feedback of all kinds (including upward) is welcomed and encouraged. I also feel like I'm better compensated than I would be at other companies of this size and stage.

Cons

The amount of change in the past few months has been huge. A lot of it is much needed, but at times it's felt like too much all at once. I'm confident that it will all be for the best, but there are understandably some ups and downs along the way. The strong culture from the Munich office doesn't quite transfer to the other spaces, and the London office can be on the quiet side, but I see this is an area they're investing in and it is getting better.
