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

"Startup" poised to do great things

Pros

FastSpring an effective and profitable, well-established startup of 50 or so employees with a SaaS offering at the intersection of payments, subscriptions and e-commerce. As the company was understaffed for many years before acquisition by current leadership there is there is a lot of opportunity for out-sized impact and accelerated growth in all areas of the business. Employees are treated as experts in their fields, feedback is heard, experimentation is encouraged, failure is not dwelled on.

Cons

Though profitable, this is after all, still a start up. Process is being developed, grooves are being found, not all experiments are successful, some "departments" are filled by team effort (like IT or HR). If you are a team player and like solving problems these are less like con's and more like engaging challenges.

Pros

Management is transparent, ambitious, and highly invested in the companies success. Casual environment with lots of fun people. Small company means lots of opportunity to work hard and stand out. Coworkers often hang out together and the company sponsors catering once a week. Close to downtown and lots of great restaurants. Good work - life balance here in Santa Barbara.

Cons

Minor politics like any company. No 401K matching.

Pros

- Small business to make quick decision and Ideas get heard - Company culture is warm and welcoming from every department - Quick growth opportunity to move up the sales ladder - Hybrid in-office work environment - I miss people! - 1/2 day every other Friday, Grubhub every other week, and WFH reimbursements

Cons

- With every tech job there is a learning curve. They are addressing this by hiring new sale enablement that will make the process go smoother going forward - Sometimes early 7:30AM meetings to sync with Amsterdam office. - Company has grown a lot this past year so you may have to help with cross over department roles to help with transitions. not a bad thing, just different.
