Mental Health at risk

Pros

-Good salary -Gifts by employer -Good tech stack

Cons

I would not advise people to join this company due to the dirty politics and non healthy work environment My mental health worsened there and the way performance review is done is completely biased. I had to wait for months in order to recover before I could start working again. The rivalry between colleagues is at its peak and one do anything possible to get promoted. Fake words like team spirit raised during sprint retrospective . It is easier to get fired than getting hired. Also the offers are tempting but it is not worth sacrificing your mental health for such things. Do not get tempted by the social media hype on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram etc.. Many people got fired with compensation recently due to poor management skills and poor company vision. If you have a family to look after, then it is not the place where you should be adventuring.

Thank you for sharing your review, and we’re sorry to read about your experience. We take your comments extremely seriously, as they’re completely at odds with how we want our people to feel when they come to work. Creating a culture where colleagues can prioritise their mental health, and feel supported in doing so, is very important to us. It’s why we’ve established a mental health champions network, have a comprehensive wellness programme and offer an employee assistance service for anyone to access when they need it. We're sorry this wasn't your experience. We wish you all the very best in the future.

Pros

- Very fast paced, so you will keep learning - Interesting challenges and projects, modern tech stack - Fairly flexible with a hybrid approach - Lots of autonomy and responsibilities - Nice office and benefits there

Cons

- Having lots of autonomy comes with a lot of responsibilities - Naturally, it’s hectic at time and you have to embrace this to enjoy the culture

Pros

- Brand new office, really well managed and close to the subway (5m walk from Francos station) - Modern and good stack to work with (working with .net, docker, aws, terraform, ...) - You can choose the type of equipment (Windows or Mac) and software (eg: VS or Rider) you prefer - Everyone I've spoke so far is very friendly and helpful About the hiring process - I had a couple of very nice interviews, but it looks like I'll (still, at least) not use the requested skills on daily work. It might change on the near future, I guess.

Cons

Perhaps the only "bad thing" I've seen so far is that you must be on 2 specific days/week on the office. It's not a big deal to me, but I know it's quite relevant for most people.

Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review of your time with us so far, we really appreciate it. It's great to see you're enjoying your time with colleagues, office space and benefits package. We're sorry to see you haven't been able to use certain skills during your day to day role. At Checkout.com, we want to make sure every one of our people has the opportunity to be their best selves, while developing and growing at the same time. With this in mind, we will take your feedback on board. Our people surveys showed us that the majority of our employees want a hybrid working model with the opportunity to work from both the office and home, so we used this feedback as a key guiding principle when developing our hybrid approach towards working. We will also take on board your comments regarding this, and make sure we let the people team know. Thanks once again for taking the time to leave us this review, The People Team.
