Process
Great process, super quick, and super clear. There were three rounds, all explained beforehand, with constant follow-ups to keep you in the loop. It was really positive. I feel like I mattered, and in the end, I always felt comfortable.

Pros: Company culture is fantastic. Founders come from Booking and they try to apply Booking culture and values @ Pennylane. That created a special treat for employees. You're really appreciated and respected in each way. Good work life balance. No overtime if you don't really insist :) A chance to work with really good people and learn from senior engineers a lot. Gatherings at Paris 5-6 times per year They treat remote people the same as employees from France.
Cons: Tech staff grew from 50 to 100 people in 2022 so now the product is quite huge and there are a lot of new people, but this can always be an advantage since it offers learning opportunities.
