Pros

-The company is a huge success and in a very cool space - crypto

Cons

-top down culture that runs thru a few of mostly unqualified leaders that show very little care for the well being of those under them -around the clock work - calls/emails/slack message at very late hours after 11pm and on weekends - this is the norm. -extraordinary stressful with very little support form leadership. its a culture of blaming the staff and not helping them. -zero career advancement possibilities or training. all managers come from the outside.

Hello there, based on what you’ve shared, it sounds like your time with us wasn’t as positive as either of us would have liked, and for that we are sorry. We wanted to take the time to address some of your comments here. Our Pandas well-being is imperative and working around the clock is not what we promote at all. Boundaries must be respected and a healthy work-life balance implemented for everyone. Our Pandas are our most valued assets and Bitpanda wouldn’t be what it is without each and every one of you. We work in a scale-up environment and that means that things can move fast and change quickly but working overtime certainly isn’t the norm and should never come at the expense of our team-members' well-being. While we are scaling up and growing our business, leadership and communication are a point of attention. We are actively working on improving these areas by providing managers with training and improving our performance management processes. We do encourage self-steering in our work and we empower our Pandas to create their own path with guidance. Over the summer we conducted another round of our 360 feedback cycle and development conversations and this is the perfect opportunity for people to discuss their career goals directly with their manager. We are always open for having a respectful dialogue and would welcome any and all constructive feedback. If you’re up for it, please feel free to reach out to our HR team at peopleteam@bitpanda.com — we’re always here to chat! We wish you nothing but the best in your future endeavors! Thanks, Chiara

Pros

I have had a positive experience with the hiring process in Vienna, Austria. The HR team always prioritized the communication and updates, even when my applications were refused (several times). Nevertheless, the professional approach is their highest quality. There have been clear instructions to the interview, very kind approach during the interview and highly reactive in terms of feedback. Very impressed!

Cons

None so far. As mentioned, highly professional and straight forward.

Pros

Interesting sector, good salary and equipment

Cons

Very bad training. The senior staff never share the complete procedure to the other staff to beeing essential for tbe company and not enter in the russian roulette. Management do not accept feedback and if you give it you are marked. Company overhire and fire many staff the first months. If you don't have a job you can apply, but if you are thinking to leave your current job to join Bitpanda, better think twice. Definitely i don't recomend this company and will leave as son as possible

Hello, while we are excited to read that you are happy with our salary and equipment package, we are very sorry to read about your concerns. I would like to point out that feedback is a crucial part of our employee journey, it has always been highly valued at Bitpanda how short the communication channels are and how flat the hierarchy is. On top of that, we offer formal and confidential feedback moments, such as 360 reviews as well as our engagement survey which are taken very seriously throughout our management level. Due to our product and location expansions, our hiring needs are high to support our current team members as soon as possible. We`d love for you to share your thoughts directly with your manager or the people team to understand the details of your discontent and find solutions where possible. We thank you for your feedback so far. Wishing you all the best, Chiara
