      Pros

      - International environment - free perks and beverages - freedom of project selection - company offices It's generally a pleasure to work surrounded by international people.

      Cons

      Too hard to attract tech leads, impossible deadlines lately, talent seems to flee because software quality is unacceptable. Lack of proper management of engineering projects. Projects are managed and developed with a YOLO mindset. Total lack of testing in several back-end projects put the product quality in serious risk.

      Dear Reviewer, Thank you for your feedback on your experience at N26. December 2016, as we have mentioned in other responses, was a migration period from our partner platform to our own backend system. We are very much aware of the amount of work which was required from all our teams and more so our tech leads given the responsibility they had to ensure their teams deliver on project. After successful migration, we’ve been working on increasing our team’s capacity to make sure that work is distributed well and that our employees are not overburdened. We are hiring a number of Tech Leads and Senior Software Engineers to make sure that this scenario does not repeat itself in the future. Best, N26

      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
