Although it is a step out of my comfort zone, working at Sentien taught me a lot (and there is still much to learn). I have to deal many interesting problems, but I have everything I need to solve them - autonomy, freedom to make my decisions, and the support of the whole team. Working at a startup forced me to focus and prioritise, do only what makes sense and filter out unnecessary tasks. Last but not least, I have a chance to potentially influence millions of people, to build something new from scratch, that is incredibly exciting and makes me think positively about the future.
Cons
It is hard. You have to learn from your mistakes, you have to take responsibility, you cannot hide behind a wall of processes and complicated decision trees. If you are looking for an easy and calm job, where you can float comfortably through your career, look elsewhere :)
It was one of my best decision to join the team! Like many companies also Sentien promised a challenging environment, being able to work freely and have a voice in the company, be creative, bold, straightforward and a great working environment.
And the reality is even better! Being a part of a new chapter, where you see the “fruits” of your work is coming to life.
I always wanted to be a part of something great, where I will be able to put my input, opinion and especially just being myself and be appreciated for it. Not being just a number.
Cons
No complaints, we try to deal with problems directly when they appear.
