Lack of planning causing lots of problems and leading to redundancies

Pros

Product, Newly joined senior leaders, they really try but with no success

Cons

There is no planning, no strategy in place. That leads to quick hiring then redundancies. The last 12 months SEON has grown from about 50 to 300 people but had 2 redundancy rounds. So your job is not safe. Why? Lack of planning and strategy. The Founders and the ELT is rather "green", they do not trust the newly hired and experienced workforce that actually has the experience.... and with all of this the Founder CEO (no matter what he says)is a little dictator. People are soooo afraid of him.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate all feedback, both positive and negative, as it helps us to continually improve our company and culture. However, we do need to correct a factual error in your review. SEON has actually grown from 150 to 300 employees in the last 12 months, not from 50 to 300 as you stated. In terms of planning and strategy, we understand that there have been concerns about our recent redundancy rounds. We want to assure you that a plan and strategy are in place, and this is being shared in all the all-hands meeting. The layoffs were not due to a lack of planning or strategy, but rather a result of the impact of the economy and our decision to not slow down hiring early enough when we saw that we weren't performing commercially and growth was slowing down. We acknowledge that we hired too fast, in a tough economic time, but in order to continue delivering the best fraud-fighting solutions, we must make some changes to build a sustainable long-term business. Regarding your comment about the CEO, we want to make it clear that no one has any reason to fear me. If our employees do their job right, they have nothing to worry about. However, it is important to note that working for a high-growth startup like SEON does come with high expectations, and we need a world-class team in order to achieve our goals. If you were recently made redundant and you feel it's unfair, please message me directly: tomkadar@seon.io, and we will do our best to support you further. We appreciate your feedback and hope that we have addressed your concerns. If you have any further questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly. Tamas Kadar - CEO and Co-Founder of SEON

Pros

The product and the quality of the coworkers are amazing. The salaries are more than decent, and you can expect a lot of great perks too. The management treats their employees fairly.

Cons

Since this is a relatively new startup, the organization lacks in some areas, but this is to expected at such a rapid growing rate. High expectations, and sometimes big workload
