Pros

I will say that I was a bit skeptical about the reviews of other employees, but my experience has been nothing but excellent so far. It's a super dynamic environment, a lot of support from senior leaders, and a lot of nice and hard working people. I really like working here, and I do not regret joining Bitpanda. There is also a supreme level of customer care, so I'm happy to also be with them as a user myself.

Cons

It can be too dynamic for some people, I particularly like it, I never get bored here. If I could change some things, it would be: - WFA policy to allow more flexibility to work in countries other than EU. It's too bureaucratic and we should take into account that a lot of people just want to spend more time in their home country. This could be more facilitated by IT to also play on the safe side without compromising our personal life. - More benefits to offices other than Vienna. Food vouchers specially.

Hi Panda, We appreciate you taking the time to leave your glowing feedback! It's great to hear you're enjoying a fantastic experience with us so far — we're also glad to have you here on team Bitpanda! As we work in a highly regulated sector, we naturally take the security of the company, customers and our Pandas very seriously, which is why we have to be careful about where we allow our folks to work from whilst abroad. While there are other safe countries outside of the EU to work from (you can find the complete list on our internal Confluence page), our 80/20 rule means that at least 80 per cent of your working time should overlap with the rest of your team. However, in exceptional circumstances, a request to work in a safe country outside of the EU can be granted if you've received approval from your line manager, People team and someone from C-level. Our Workplaces team is always looking for ways to ensure that Pandas based outside Vienna have a similar experience they would find in our HQ. If you'd like to request/suggest something for your office location, please don't hesitate to reach out to them at workplaces@bitpanda.com. In the meantime, thanks once again for sharing your thoughts and for your hard work so far!

Hi Panda, Although we’re glad you’re finding our equipment and compensation for your efforts to be good, we’re sorry that your experience with us so far isn’t as highly rated. At Bitpanda, our culture is deeply ingrained in our Bitpanda DNA — 8 principles that guide how we work together across teams, different cultures and time zones — and we work hard to ensure everyone in our den has an inclusive, transparent and equitable environment to thrive in. However, it’s important to note that when choosing to join Bitpanda, you’re signing up to be in a fast-paced growth company, not just for a paycheque. This is because the demands of our business mean this isn’t your typical clock-in, clock-out, 9-to-5 corporate job, and we want all of our folks to be fully onboard with what we’re achieving: simplifying wealth creation. We understand that this type of high-impact-focused environment isn’t for everyone, which is why we encourage all our folks to regularly evaluate whether Bitpanda is still the right place for them. If there’s anything in particular that you’d like to raise privately and anonymously, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our People team at peopleteam@bitpanda.com — they’re always here to help. In the meantime, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us here!

Pros

Some great people. Desire to make great work.

Cons

Poor Founder leadership You judge a company by its culture when things get tough, not when growth is easy. Bitpanda struggled this way.

Hi former Panda, We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed working with your fellow Pandas (we know we’ve got the best of the best with us in our den!). At Bitpanda, our DNA reflects the incredible culture we’ve built together with our Pandas. We do our very best to ensure that everyone in our den lives and breathes each of them to make this an open, honest and fully transparent workplace. As you know, the market sentiment has dramatically changed over the past few months. This has been fuelled by geopolitical tensions, rising inflation and concerns about the imminence of a recession. However, we’ve seen crypto winters before and always gotten out of them stronger. Right now, we're getting back to basics and prioritising safety and compliance, user experience, education and community to ensure we’re well-positioned to keep building on our mission and stay ahead of the curve once the markets recover. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts about your time with us. We wish you all the best in your next adventures!
