Worst place I've ever worked

Pros

Trips to Amsterdam That's it. I'm just adding words because Glassdoor requires at least five.

Cons

Don't get sucked in by the Amsterdam trips and other perks. Read the negative reviews here, and you'll see that Adyen doesn't care about people of color, or people with families, or people with disabilities and medical issues. A lot of people drink the Adyen kool-aid and talk about how great the people are, how fun and challenging the work is, and how much they love the culture. But once you leave this place and find another job, you'll see how underpaid and mistreated you were.

Discrimination and bullying without any action

Pros

Used to be a good company to work for 1 year ago

Cons

Almost all women who came back from approved maternity leave either were offered severance or offered a lower role. Most of them had to sign NDAs so they can get some severance to take care of their families. Anyone who has an opinion disappears from the company in days. Worst culture. If I could give it 0 or negative, I would. No one outside of adyen knows or cares about Adyen, so jobs post adyen are so bleak. You will be stuck here, as know one outside will care about the experience you gained here.
