Work Life Balance is great, salary is great, work volume is nice and maintainable
Communication from outside the areas and teams. There is no common goal in the company.
Slash the amount of management we have. Create clear communication paths. Make all decisions observable and let people impact the goal of the company.
Inside the team working is fun
This is very good, i can work how long i want, when i want as long as the tickets get done
This depends on the team you are in. If you are lucky like me this is nice
It is unclear what the goals are. There is a communication gap between what has been done to what the managers think has been done. Roadmaps are not synced at all with product
I work mostly from home so i define the environment i work in
There are meetings, but all of them talk about what needs to be done. No wins, no next steps, no vision communications

People at Paymenttools are truly inspiring! Working here makes me feel respected and truly motivated. Since I have joined everyone was friendly, kind and very supportive on welcoming me to the team and teaching me a lot every day. The learning curve and personal space is respected, at the same time as we are encouraged to take further steps on our growth and building amazing products with the team.
There is a very well functioning work-life balance, the environment is healthy, projects are planned well to avoid stress. The team works trust based and with that we reach a lot of efficiency splitting tasks and addressing new topics.
The company is growing but still has an overall "small" friendly environment with people knowing each other and speaking often. We have clear access to management level and can discuss topics with relative openess.
A great place to work :)
Employee benefits could improve.
There could be improved benefits such as Learning Budgets and the possibility to work abroad for a few days. Since the company has now more and more international employees, the point of combining vacation with working days would be amazing.
People are truly kind and open. I feel like my time is respected, at the same time as I am incentivised to learn new things and be pro-active.
Flexibility with working hours and hybrid working mode. We have an amazing office to go to and can also work from home when needed. Good planning also make the projects well-prepared and less stressful. Work-life-balance is great.
Everyone is super nice, however the company is still moving to a more english speaking environment so we need time for everyone to adapt.

Immer weniger
S.o.
Einfach mal die Arroganz ablegen und sich mal auf das wesentliche , Stichwort " Omnichannel-Plattform " konzentrieren. Und einen Vertrieb einstellen, der auch wirklich Vertrieb macht. In den anderen Abteilungen wird Paymenttools meist als Karrieresprungbrett für mehr Berufserfahrung genutzt. Die Leute merken schnell, dass es nicht weitergeht und gehen wieder.
Ist ok, aber nicht mehr
Die Wettbewerber belächelt uns für unsere Arroganz und den mangelnden Erfolg. Ohne unsere Mutter wären wir schon lange nicht mehr am Markt. Neue Kunden : Fehlanzeige
Bei uns gut
Schlecht, man will lieber Gen Z
Zwischen den Abteilungen kaum vorhanden

Flexible work. I can't flex this enough, this is really good. Never in my life i had more flexible work times and locations. Compensation for work also is great.
Like mentioned above the communication of new opportunities from c level to the rest could and should be improved.
More involvement of architects/engineers into leads would be nice. Better project management so deadlines are more relaxed would also be a nice benefit.
I work fully remote and can't make it otherwise. This is accepted and due to the full flex nature of the company i can work whenever i want. The only required meetings are once a week so one can plan them accordingly.
I haven't heard much bad from customers or others when it comes to REWE or paymenttools in general. I would say this is a solid image and i'm proud to say that i work here.
I would rate this 12/10. Due to my personal situation i need lots of ad-hoc time for dealing with it. This was never easier than in this company. I work fully remote with no core working time. There is no work time tracking. If you get your stuff done nobody will ask you when and how you have done it
Most of the decisions we take as a company (currently) don't have a special environmental aspect in them
If you want you can get education as long as it's profitable for the company. You can take all sorts of online courses (be it code warrior, online certs from AWS/GCP/Azure etc.). It's also possible to get trainers for learning. There are also workshops from time to time to exchange knowledge gained with others (also across companies in the REWE group)
In engineering where i work we have good collaboration on problems. We discover improvements and implement them together. Never had a problem with finding someone to bounce ideas off and getting proper feedback on ideas (may they be bad or good).
We have younger and older colleagues and never had a problem with it. It feels that everyone can talk to anyone without any fear and borders. This is very refreshing since there is no set "mindset" in most people.
This is a downside of this company i feel. C Level is heavily disconnected from the daily operations and projects. They are more focused on getting deals closed and don't involve the company beforehand. This leads to "pop-up" projects which have deadlines which are not exactly easy to hold. Involving the company earlier into those processes of closing new deals would improve this situation a ton.
Like i said above full flex on working hours / location. You get a macbook and can use it for everything you need (i also use it for private stuff from time to time). I also use the Jobrad heavily and the other discounts the company offers due to it being part of REWE group
Communication is a bit hard sometimes. Many leads are "hidden by default" due to c level needing to sign strict NDAs with the involved party. This for my feeling could improve since we all have a NDA with the company which should hold for such kind of situations (excluding the externals maybe)?
The salary is good industry standard. You on yourself are responsible for dealing new conditions though. This is a plus for me since i don't like "general" union style contracts where someone else defines your worth of work. For socials this is regulated, you get german insurances and rent plans.
Since this is a highly regulated environment it's fun to deal with that kind of challenges. Also the amount of volume we need to move is nice to have and the amount of detail this requires is something i like.
Dear Colleague,
We really appreciate the time and effort you put it in to leaving this feedback. We are pleased that the working environment is suitable for you and you are enjoying your time with us! It's great that you are enjoying your work as an individual and with your team. The payment space is pretty cool :) We acknowledge the information flow and the "pop up" nature of projects and we hope that as we grow and shift as a company, this becomes a smoother funnel of information and work flows are optimized. Continue learning, continue growing, continue enjoying! We are glad to have you here!
All the best,
Bridgett Vajda
Young and energetic
Staying focused in delivering values to customers, at the same time taking care of employees.
Dear Colleague,
We are so glad you are here at paymenttools and that your interview process and relocation went smoothly! It's great to see you are enjoying working with your colleagues and the work you do. We continue to strive for better, if you have any recommendations for the relocation and/or interview process please reach out to the People Experience team!
Warm regards,

Openness to innovation and change, flexibility, responsible and interesting tasks
Expand the management level to create more structures, stronger employer brand
The atmosphere among colleagues is relaxed, everyone is very helpful, and you can quickly get into contact with people outside your own team.
We are a cool company, but unfortunately still somewhat inconspicuous to the outside world.
Thanks to flexible working hours, you get a good handle on your work-life balance.
The team spirit among colleagues is great!
You are provided with very modern IT equipment, but the office space could be made even more attractive.
Communication within the company is very transparent and open, even if it doesn't always work perfectly. Feedback is welcome and appreciated.
Due to the size and age of the company, the decision-making paths are still very short and the room for initiative is very large. Ideas can be introduced and directly implemented without having to turn around several loops. I enjoy that very much!
Dear Colleague,
Always great to receive this feedback! We are delighted you are happy with, well, a lot here at Paymenttools! We advocate for flexibility and providing a positive place to work. It's also great to see that the ability to take initiative with short decisions paths and go for things is appreciated. Keep doing what you are doing, we will continue to innovate!
We do recognize that we can improve our presence in the payment industry as a product and as an employer and we are taking steps to increase our presence! If you have any ideas, as always, please bring them to the team!
Warm regards,
Bridgett Vajda
Hybrid work, modern tech stack, motivated colleagues and interesting topics.
My advice would be to hire more product experts with payment know how. The tech expertise in the company is really good. But we are really lacking payment industry experts to drive the product vision.
Nice colleagues, interesting tasks, 2 week sprints.
Backed by the REWE group, but the visibility in the payment bubble needs to be enhanced.
I can't complain, it gets stressful here and there but we want to get things done, right?
There is a budget per person, but you need to ask for it, totally fine in my opinion.
It's a matter of negotiation. I am happy with my salary.
I think things like an extra vacation pay, christmas money or VWL would be something people would really appreciate.
I can't tell.
Great colleagues, we are trying to do team buildings whenever it is possible, we also have quarterly company events and nice possibilities for hackathons in the broader rewe group.
The average age is relatively young, but we also have some older colleagues which are totally included and respected for there knowledge.
My line manager is really kind and always has an open ear for every topic I have. He encourages me to involve myself and has the right portion of being pushy to leave my comfort zone. Thumbs up.
You get top notch hardware, all licenses you need and the overall toolstack is modern and cloud native.
Indeed a great environment to work with state of the art technology.
Okayish..
Great topics, interesting industry.
Dear colleague,
We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to hear about the aspects you value in your work experience. The hybrid work model, modern tech stack, and motivated colleagues are key factors in creating a positive work environment. Your suggestion about hiring payment industry experts is noted, and we'll work on strengthening the product vision. It's great to know that you have a supportive line manager and enjoy engaging tasks.
We're pleased to see that you have a strong sense of camaraderie among your colleagues and that there are ample opportunities for team-building and collaboration. Your observations on work-life balance and the overall work environment are valuable. We understand the importance of improving visibility in the payment industry and will take steps to enhance our presence.
Thank you for your feedback, and we look forward to continuing to provide a rewarding work experience for you and your colleagues.
Warm regards,

cool product, cool tech stack, good tool landscape overall, smart and driven folks, lot of space to bring ideas and have an impact
communication top-down can be improved, stronger employer brand, more efficiency when it comes to decision-making
have all the things I need to be able to do my job, as I am mostly remote, having 2 kids, I do not have always the "right" environment - my "problem"
really cool company in terms what it is doing, product-wise, very innovative, but we do have quite some to do's when it comes to strengthening the brand and "marketing" ourselves better
having 2 kids can be often a "far stretch", but paymenttools provides flexibility to manage my time accordingly
did not get much involved in this, but sustainability is an important topic
employee education budget and you get what you ask for, if you ask for it
really cool people, very friendly
noticed we have several colleagues who are over 2 decades in the company and they are very much appreciated and recognized which is cool
the CW office is really cool and big, Berlin office is really nice as well thus cant complain - can come anytime I wants. We are in a change phase thus we have couple of building blocks to tackle, but interesting tasks
as we are in a change phase we are improving how we convey ideas & updates, but sometimes its not that straight-forward top-down, but that is everywhere
salary-wise I do think we are offering market standard, but we do miss some other incentives and perks - which will come by time
Dear colleague,
Thank you for sharing your valuable insights. It's great to know that you appreciate our cool products and the wonderful people you work with.
We also admire your dedication to your family, and we're happy that our flexible work environment allows you to manage your time effectively, especially with two kids.
Your input on communication and branding is duly noted, and we're working on those aspects. With your insights on this platform you already contributed building our employer brand, thank you for that. We value your contribution and the strong sense of unity among our colleagues.
Thanks for being part of our team and for balancing your work and family life with us.
Warm regards,
Christian
