Checkout.com Software Developer reviews

Very political environment, with performance reviews unable to account for technical input and outcomes, relying extensively on "being liked by everyone" and being agreeable with whatever nonsense managers may dream up overnight. Senior management does not care about individuals, they think everyone has the same needs as them and tries to fit everyone in the same model that works for them. Best example for this is the latest return to office change, which indiscriminately expects everyone to further tweak the hybrid model.

If you want to join a company that combines the chaos of a start-up with the bureaucracy of a corporation, then look no further. What’s more, your ways of working will be dictated by the insular context of the chief officers. If you’re lucky, they’ll remember that people other than them work in the London office. If you work outside of London, then good luck being remembered that you exist at all when decisions are being made. On a more individual workload level, the company has no issues ignoring that there are missing people to fill roles, and are more than happy to push extra responsibilities on other roles, while still expecting them to deliver the same way on their original work. All in all, a good time. Would feel frustrated again.
