Leaving was the best thing that happened to me

Business Outlook

Pros

Cool offices, lots of nice and talented colleagues. Depending on the department you work for I think you can have a nice career here, but stay away from Merchant Operations.

Cons

Adyen’s formula was turned into this cultish tool to manipulate and bully employees. The formula is taken way to seriously, applied only to the company’s own benefit and according to your manager’s subjective interpretation and interest. I still maintain contact with former colleagues and many months after leaving I see that they are all overworked, unsatisfied and dealing with toxic managers.
