Hi. Thanks for sharing your feedback and perspective. Our people really do make N26 a great place to work, and we love your shoutout here for our amazing engineering teams. We would definitely second this (+1). With regards to the feedback you have raised around needing to better understand our mid- to long-term strategy, and how we approach decision making in the company, this is something our executive leadership team (ELT) has taken onboard and is in the process of addressing. Our ELT has established a forum with our 50 most senior leaders in the organization, with the intention of receiving more input and feedback from a larger group of leaders. This is so that we can provide more transparency and context for important decisions, and work together on the strategic direction of the company. These leaders will also have the responsibility to channel your input and feedback into these conversations. Within this forum, we hope to foster a strong dialogue on our strategic direction. As we’ve navigated through a period of very fast growth in recent years, followed by the challenges brought on this year by the pandemic, we know it has been a difficult time for many. Throughout all of this, N26ers have continued to drive the business forward, and we couldn’t be more proud of the teamwork, sense of ownership, and all the great achievements we’ve seen. We’re grateful to have you on this journey with us, and appreciate you speaking up to share your feedback.

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
