Pros

Best company I’ve ever worked for. Amazing culture, great people, feels like a family. So many benefits- free lunch, wear what you want, beers in the fridge (!), constant supply of fruit/snacks. You are given so much trust & autonomy to build your own business/pipeline you are desperate to repay that trust. Flexible working- can work from home the odd day a week if you need too. Lots of young intelligent people in the company with a desire to make a positive impact on the organisation. Unbelivable company parties! Very few egos in the company, senior staff very approachable as well as our C-Level suite. Best product in the payments market by far- Adyen continue to disrupt an industry full of outdated legacy technology, which was previously dominated by the traditional banks. Adyen continue to innovate. Little politics, people talk straight and pick up the phone- email culture is discouraged! Success is also driven via great teamwork & working in teams to achieve is encouraged as well as sharing responsibility.

Cons

Communication within the company and across departments could sometimes be better. But it is improving. Training for new starters could improve- not much structure and very much learn on the job/ask your colleagues. I understand processes are being put in place to improve this.
