      Competitive Pay, but a Toxic Environment with No Support

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The only positive aspects of working at Neo4j are the competitive salaries and the good facilities.

      Cons

      During my 2-3 years at Neo4j, the experience was deeply unpleasant. The company demanded a lot while offering no guidance or support. Job security was virtually nonexistent—10% of the workforce was made redundant in 2020 alone. I can't disclose much due to my NDA, but you can guess what this means. Think twice before you start working for this company or even start any sort of business with them.

      Weakest CEO in All of Tech

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Many in the company share my views.

      Cons

      This is honestly the least effective CEO I’ve ever worked with. He’s pretty arrogant, consistently makes poor hiring choices, and won’t listen to anyone around him. The company’s in trouble as long as he’s in charge. The board should put him in charge of product innovation and leave the business operations to an adult CEO.

      Beware of stock-based compensation

      Pros

      Graph is very intuitive and fun.

      Cons

      Like many tech companies, part of the compensation may be equity. You'll get a number of shares, vesting over 4 years, that are worth "a lot". It turns out that "a lot" is likely < $10/share (liquidity aside). For me, the equity part of the compensation effectively rounded to almost zero. There was also no 401k match. Neo4j has had a couple of rounds of layoffs. That's worth considering if you have a need for financial stability/security. You're exposed to risks you might see in a startup, but minus the upside.
