Pros

The majority of people at neo4j are enjoyable to interact with and the company benefits are nice

Cons

The product is old and serious cracks are showing in the codebase due to some bad decisions made early in development. Priority is given to piling on more features with hacks upon hacks, and technical leads know that their career progression depends on releasing janky features rather than fixing glaring structural problems.

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.
