Pros

- Superior product/service to competition - The Amsterdam team bond has grown into a very strong unit - Amazing office with tons of office perks (snacks, great cafeteria, barista, free coffee, gym... etc) and - Flexible working environment - International colleagues sharing expertise from different companies (mainly SaaS and payments) - Sharing and open team culture - Working with merchants from all over the world

Cons

- West Coast USA HQ makes for sometimes difficult inter-departmental communication (if working from Amsterdam) - Missing the strategy of the company and the vision of the Execs - Can seem more reactive then proactive

Pros

Re-established amsterdam office after major churn due to toxic people, moved to a new nice location and the team is building again with great talent. Opportunity to stand out in a scaling environment. Wellness reimbursment pension incoming International team in Amsterdam team events nice swag great base salary good product

Cons

Couple years ago there was huge churn due to two toxic people on the team that were trying to take the office in another direction. It has caused some bad reviews unfortunately but gladly we were able to come back from that. communication between the US and Euro can be delayed Need more admin/IT on the ground in amsterdam major lack of diversity in the US sales team benefits not on the same level as US - this should be the same across the board or inline with amsterdam standards

Pros

Salary is good-ish but no amount of money was worth the absolutely toxic environment that this company has. At least now I know what to look for to avoid a company like this.

Cons

- Nepotism: I have never seen nepotism like I did at this company. Upper management hiring their friends and they hire their friends to fill other positions. - Bullying: As if the micromanaging of absolutely incompetent managers wasn’t enough, the only tool they use to (i use this term very loosely) “motivate” the employees is intimidation, closeted threats and basically bullying. - This company embodies all the worst cliches of an evil American corporation. Not a smidge of respect for their employees, no compassion. They don’t see you as human beings so don’t expect humanity. Unless you’re a friend, then you’ll get handed leads and praise even if you’re not doing anything worthy, while the actually talented few people get overworked and overlooked. - Also since the reviews on here are showing their true face they’re asking employees to write 5 star reviews, which is not surprising because this kind of behavior is second nature.
