Pros

Classic start up environment. Not really impressive

Cons

Worst place I have worked in! Politic games are a constant in the daily work , Continuous fight between product vs bank vs core Office space (K72) is terrible. Unfinished building with meeting room without door, or even wall, pieces falling apart and nobody really seems to care. Physical security is a joke Is the answear “ we are a start up in hypergrowth phase” really enough to justify such “shadows” ? Not for me, actively looking for a new job after just a couple of months Great learning experience though

Pros

Small team in NYC working on bringing N26 to the US. Flat team structure (no bureaucracy or painful hierarchies). Open lines of communication and instant feedback loops. Everyone is extremely smart and driven towards a common goal, and we also enjoy each other's company both in and out of the office. There's also respect for having a life outside of work and a good sense of balance. Huge opportunity to take on as much work as you can handle and drive your own workstreams and outputs. I've found that my scope of responsibilities is quite large, and since joining, I've broadened my skill-set significantly in areas I wanted to expand upon.

Cons

Coordination with Berlin can be difficult at times given time zones and hypergrowth there. Nonetheless, people always are willing to help out and make themselves available when needed. Small team size as of now means fewer hands to help with all that needs to get done. That said - plenty of opportunity for new joiners to take on key tasks and responsibilities as we continue to grow the team
