Pros

What I value most was the technical depth of the tasks . The team’s expertise and team collaboration made the experience truly enriching.

Cons

Ambitious storytelling on the outside, but slow technical advancement on the inside. Many colleagues are exhausted, and constructive criticism often stayed unspoken. It reinforced for me how essential realistic planning and psychological safety workplaces are for any organization that wants to build more than a narrative. When the vision and capabilities drift too far from what is realistically achievable creates unnecessary pressure and limits the potential of the great people doing the work.It can happen that a hype is followed by a hard reality check.

Thank you for your time with us and sharing your thoughts. We’re glad the technical depth and the people around you made it worthwhile. Building the fastest growing fusion company in Europe in just three years is something we're proud of and don't take lightly. We’re upfront about the intensity from the first interview. Challenge and open conversation are things we actively encourage in our communication. We want people to push back, flag problems early, and say the hard things. We are sorry if this is not the experience you had, and we’re grateful for being part of this.

Pros

Really challenging project, interesting tasks, a lot of ownership and real impact.

Cons

Performance review process was a joke and made many people leave. The culture became toxic, people got silenced and depressed. Crazy owertimes and 'get blamed' culture.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad the work itself, the ownership, the challenge and impact felt meaningful. That’s the experience we want everyone to have. Proxima is working on one of the hardest engineering challenges humanity has ever attempted, and we do believe that requires building a high-performance culture with clear standards and real accountability. We also know that this environment isn't the right fit for everyone, and we respect that. We talk about this openly during our interviews and let people decide if this is the right place for them. Thank you for your time with us and your contributions.

Pros

Good employees with good intentions. Flexible work (for some). Location.

Cons

A few have special conditions, the vast majority is asked to be there in the office, give their life to the company and be reachable 24/7. You are asked to give a lot while never receiving support, help or directions. Management is wary of making choices, there is no coordination and all the resulting pressure and work is passed down. You are held responsible of the outcomes, but you won't have a voice in the decisions. People were terminated in mysterious circumstances. Non-positive feedback is not received well. Stuck in the old ways.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad the people and the location were highlights of your journey with us. The team is really something we’re proud of. We're building something that's never been built before, which means the path isn't always clear from the start. That's part of why we hire the way we do and why we look for people who will help us shape the way forward. We are also actively working on ensuring that people have the full picture, and full transparency on team goals, meeting outcomes, and decisions across the company. No one should have to guess where we’re going or why. We’re sorry it didn’t work out, and we hope the next chapter is a good one.
