Great culture but not for everyone

Pros

- Strong internal culture (Adyen Formula): It encourages people to think and act like entrepreneurs. There are few processes, which keeps us lean and accountable. Though for some, this can feel like a lack of guidance and be disorienting at first. - Great support from senior sales management: They’re always available and open to discussion. While focused on results, they’re also patient and understand that success takes time. In a fast-changing environment, they adapt their management style to support the team. - Strong cross-office relationships: Collaboration with colleagues across different countries and offices is a real strength. But you need to actively build your internal network to benefit from it. - Great perks: Delicious lunches and snacks, plus a beautiful office environment.

Cons

- Time difference with Amsterdam HQ can make coordination tricky. - The brand isn’t yet widely known in the U.S, but visibility is improving quickly.

This workplace makes people sick and management doesn't care

Pros

If you want a 4 year vacation and to slack this is the place Staff and Management love to act inappropriately and do whatever they like so if you want to do that - this is the place

Cons

Immature and toxic leadership at all levels toxic colleagues especially in platform engineering homophobic and racism is completely tolerated HR closes their eyes and are fine with bullying, racism, homophobia, unprofessional behavior. VPs and above act like they are untouchable and at the same time don't take any responsibility for their organisations Company parties were good but now everyone gets totally wasted and acts like children Burnout rates are super high but management will look you in the eye and tell you it's not their responsibility that you're burning out Horrible equity incentive Looking back it was always toxic and management acted this way - it's just that it was kinda fun to be around.

Pros

Work life balance is awesome, even in the US. Job security for the most part .

Cons

Adyen is getting more corporate with so much focus on processes by the day, which is kinda sad. Salary is still not competitive per usual
