Lots of burnouts, which were not cared for at all

Java Software Engineer • Current Employee

Amsterdam, Netherlands

Pros: - Really good collaboration with other team members. - Good lunch and coffee in the office.

Cons: - No accountability for managers: if you had a conflict with one, be ready for layoff or burnout. - They claim the company has a flat organization, but it’s the opposite. I never met my skip-level manager. She ghosted me a couple of times when I had some problems. - No career growth, no clear expectations for each level. - Nearly everyone in the company knows at least one person who burned out, but management is simply closing its eyes to the root cause.
