Pros

Nice and friendly colleagues who are always helpful.

Cons

The CEO is incompetent, and the middle management is basically spineless. Priorities often change on a whim, and work is wasted. The consequences of these actions are invariably blamed on employees who are often hired and fired in quick succession. 5 days in the office if you're in London, in a loud and crowded space where everyone is on calls with their remote colleagues all day.

KodyPay Response
11mo
Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your time at Kody left you feeling this way. We understand that the intensity of a high-growth startup isn’t for everyone. Our team works (as I am sure you know) in a very dynamic environment where priorities sometimes shift quickly, that’s the nature of building complex products at speed. However, we also know this can feel frustrating and we’re working hard to improve planning, communication and consistency across teams. In terms of leadership, while we don’t respond to personal comments, we’re confident in the direction we’re heading and proud of the progress the team has made. We take feedback seriously and are always looking for ways to grow and get better, including how we lead, support and empower people. We're grateful for your contributions over the years and wish you the best in whatever’s next.

Pros

Coworkers are genuinely supportive and willing to guide you along the way.

Cons

- There's a possibility that your time here pulls your career in a completely different direction than intended. - Feedback on work from c-level is often vague at best — apparently, the ability to "read between the lines" is a required skill here. I also still wonder whether "NOW" actually counts as a project deadline. - Check work email when you sense any changes within the company, you might find something interesting.

Pros

helpful colleagues that are willing to help

Cons

Let's start with facts: 1) CEO and CFO are dating which is highly unprofessional and make decisions themselves 2) Illegal activities such as raising prices without informing clients and conducting lending activities without proper licenses 3) Extremely rude to employees, tried to fire a pregnant employee and will fire people for reasons beyond their control. There are 3 ongoing lawsuits against the company for labor law breaches 4) claims to public and investors that they are profitable but there is plenty of financial manipulation by far one of the worst places I have ever worked at
