Want work life balance or a positive culture? Look elsewhere.

Pros

Remote work environment Good tool stack to enable remote work (slack, Google workplace, Asana)

Cons

We’ve been told that if we want work life balance we should look elsewhere. We are losing great talent, top performers being exited without explanation (and the process to communicate departures has just changed from being shared with the company (who’s leaving/left) to only need to know basis.] The strategy and priority shifting we all read about in other comments is real and expectations are increasing while teams continue to be over tasked and losing great talent.

Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. At Camunda, we’re in the midst of a significant transformation, shifting from a product-led company to a high-performing, AI-driven, go-to-market organization. That shift brings challenges, and we don’t shy away from acknowledging them. Our goal remains to create an environment where meaningful work and personal well-being can thrive. Flexibility is a core value, and our fully remote model is designed to support people in working when, where, and how they work best. We also appreciate the feedback on communication. Transparency and candor matter to us, and we’re continuing to evolve how we share information while respecting individual privacy. Thank you again for your feedback. It helps us reflect, grow, and stay accountable to the kind of culture we want to build.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. We understand that work/life balance is deeply personal and can look different for everyone. To clarify, our leadership's intent is not to diminish the importance of well-being, but to be upfront about the pace and demands of this stage in our growth. We don’t see work and life as opposing forces to be balanced. We believe that great work can be a meaningful part of a holistic and fulfilling life. That’s why flexibility remains a core value at Camunda - it’s how we empower people to integrate meaningful work with their lives. Whether it’s where, when, or how work gets done, we trust our people to manage their time to support both performance and personal well-being. We remain committed to building a company where people can do the best work of their careers. Thanks again!

Pros

This is a company that is set up for long term success and is striving to be a market leader. The company is on the cusp of achieving big goals.

Cons

Camunda is not a place to work if you would like to keep a work/life balance. The CEO has stated as much. Sure, there is an unlimited time off policy, but it's common to see others working during their vacations. You'll be working on your time off too. Hours are long because there is a high workload assigned to every engineer. You're expected to make meaningful progress on many things all at once with no relief on any of them if you'd like to focus on one task. There's no way anyone could accomplish it all in a normal 40 hour work week. With the amount of workload given to engineers, there is no enhanced compensation to make up for it. Salaries and the equity given are nothing special. Why should an engineer be expected to give so much to the company, when the pay and equity is not better than any other place?
