Pros

Amazing people to work with on day to day basis. Constant opportunities to learn and take on diverse tasks an challenges.

Cons

You are expected to work more hours for no compensation. Your hard work an achievements are rarely remembered but the failures are highlighted. This is an inevitable situation when the responsibilities are piled up on one person without management oversight or support. There is little loyalty, trust or support to gain from the leadership and the company culture has taken a shift. The benefits wont counter the effects of being constantly pushed to the limit with little or no recognition.

Hi. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and share your experience of N26. We completely agree - and appreciate - that we have amazing colleagues working across the business. As we’ve grown quickly, there have been many opportunities for our people to develop into new areas and learn along the way. It’s great to hear that this has positively impacted your experience working here. Our employees are not expected to work excessive hours. For our Customer Operations, compensation for overtime is paid accordingly. This year we have introduced more flexible working arrangements and extra vacation entitlement to allow our staff to have more time to balance their work and their personal lives. Our bi-annual promotion cycle, which was introduced last year, is designed to allow our people to take ownership of their development in a structured and transparent way. This approach involves creating a development plan and seeking feedback from your stakeholders. The feedback allows for transparency in how decisions are made, and is intended to help you grow and a develop in a way that fits your career path. If you would like to share any additional feedback or suggestions on how we can ensure more recognition within your team, our employee engagement survey would be a great channel to voice your ideas. You can also get in touch with our People team at any time for a conversation.

Pros

The name N26 is still quite famous

Cons

Unbelievable behaviour towards employees, a minimum 60h+ a week is expected from you, miserable wages, horrible mismanagement - literally the whole Product Team ran away.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It is important for us to understand where our employees and former colleagues are not happy, so that we can address these concerns. Our Reward team works closely with a number of salary experts and with the market here in Berlin to ensure we are fully competitive in how we pay our staff. Our approach to compensation and benefits is driven to provide fair reward for every role. Our employees are not expected to work excessive hours. This year we have introduced more flexible working arrangements and extra vacation entitlement to allow our staff to have more time to balance their work and their personal lives. And with 1,500 employees working in the business, we have a great range of backgrounds and experiences, including those in banking. Thanks again for sharing your feedback with us - we will take this back to the relevant stakeholders and our leadership team.

Pros

- none that I can think of

Cons

- no transparency or honesty, reject their own "core values" - unequal pay and treatment, definite favouritism - obsessed with expansion, never fix ongoing issues - neglect employees, no recognition and no development - the majority of managers have no clue what they're doing - there's no structures; it's a complete mess - quarterly bonus is pathetic compared to other "banks" - they might even ban office dogs
