Pros

Well-positioned in the industry (especially compared to competitors); Some employees in certain teams are real high potentials with great skills, knowledge and drive; Values would be great but are not lived across large parts of the organisation.

Cons

Highly political company with a high fluctuation of good people; Multiple low-performers (also high up) that are kept despite their poor performance and sometimes toxic personality; Company tries to save money everywhere at all cost, especially regarding salaries (large salary differences within same function and rank, if employees don't negotiate heavily they loose, HR is not your friend here but only focuses on company interest and tries to keep salaries as low as possible with specious excuses); Not transparent at all regarding salary, promotion requirements, etc.; HR is a mess in general.

Pros

Flexible home office some remote work as well great colleagues that will help you when you ask for it average technology stack

Cons

Lower end compensation Buggy systems with a lot of overhead and friction and lack of vision to fix it Lack of clarity in goals setting process and promotions More reactive approach from management than innovation and forward thinking. Management seems detached from what is actually the quality of services Doesn't look like a fintech, rather more like an average Swiss bank
