Every classic mistake a startup can make - and they'll make it twice.
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Fruit in the break room. Good coffee machine.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Pretty much everything else.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Find a new line of work.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
People do move to get things done.
Kommunikation
Upper management will routinely lie and backstab in order to maintain facvored status with the incompetents at C-level. Don't even bother trying to improve things.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
If you are from Ukraine, you'll do fine, because there's a tight group here fighting to keep hold of the CTO, covering up the fact that they're one of the worst development teams - ever. If you're not, then keep your head down and just do what you're told.
Work-Life-Balance
You won't last long if you say the words "work-life balance" out loud in this office.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
C-level management are unable to accept advice from competent, experienced people. During my tenure I saw three good people come and go within a matter of weeks. Dunner-Kruger is in full effect here.
Interessante Aufgaben
Setting up a new lending platform and dealing with the various legal issues is certainly interesting. The business model is thoroughly unethical (payday loans), but interesting, sure.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
If you have good experience and are competent at what you do, you won't be welcome. About the only people who are, are college kids who are don't know anything and will just do as they're told.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Very pretty office, good coffee machine, etc. - which, for a company that has no on-site customers, is an enormous error that sets off a burn rate which will chew through funding with amazing velocity.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Social awareness: this one gets negative points. These guys make their business by kicking poor people when they are down. Don't expect them to be anything other than greedy fiends.
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
They balk at paying a fair wage, and if you do manage to negotiate a respectable salary for your experience, you can expect that to be held against you for the duration of your tenure.
Image
They put a very good image up, but after leaving, every recruiter I spoke to mentioned that all the candidates they see from Kreditech have nothing good to say about the company.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
None, unless you're good friends with a C-level.
