If you’re unemployed, keep going with the application. Otherwise, I’d probably skip it. This company used to have a solid foundation and ran pretty well from 2015 to 2021, but post-pandemic, things have tanked because of some bad calls from management. They will cut staff by 25% by the end of the year because of low revenue.
If you’re looking at a sales role, just know that your responsibilities will switch up every quarter based on whatever the CEO decides, even if he doesn't totally get what you actually do day-to-day. They'll hype up the commission potential to justify the low base salary, but no one’s really making that big money. Last quarter, fewer than 10% of people got any bonuses, and even then, it barely hit €2,000.
Expect a lot of micromanaging too. Managers are still pushing outdated stuff like cold calling and spamming LinkedIn, which isn’t exactly a vibe in 2023. They don’t go to industry events or seem to get what’s trending in the learning space. It’s honestly kind of rough. Lots of people have left after five-plus years because it’s just not good for mental health.
AND they’re tied up in a bunch of court cases for not paying out severance and bonuses to current and former employees — and they've lost every case so far.
