Pros

The colleagues were fun to work and hang around with, until almost all of them decided to leave.

Cons

The company is in the hands of an untrustworthy character, incapable of sticking with decisions if the opportunity to get a cent more is there or if he simply doesn't feel he likes them anymore, even when he delegated to others. There's no real care for people, to the point that the almost totality of the team changed 3 times already after seeing his true colors on multiple occasion. And most clients followed the same pattern while I was there. I wonder if the current team was aware of the full history of the company before they joined. The so much claimed company values were nothing more than smokescreen for new joiners, but there's no substance to it, especially when money is involved. On top of this, compensation was the lowest I've seen in Amsterdam for similar roles.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. I'm not gonna lie: it saddens me to read it. It seems I have been with you in a way that you felt uncomfortable to talk to me about any of this. Whether during or after you were part of our team. Although I don't share your opinions, there's two things I take away from your review: 1) In times of crisis, I should make clear that any cost cutting is for survival and not for shareholders. I have never taken any dividend, and all profit has been reinvested into the company. 2) When we make tough decisions, I need to better communicate which of our values are driving the decisions. Especially when two values are seemingly at odds with one another.
