Vantaggi

"Free lunch" that is a taxable benefit, so you are paying for it in the end.

Svantaggi

Working at Checkout.com is a masterclass in toxic management. If you are reading positive ratings on this page, take them with a grain of salt, because generating fake Glassdoor reviews is literally an internal OKR used to artificially mask the burnout and high turnover. The CEO literally quotes Batman while referring to employees as a "human operating system". You are viewed as machinery, not a person. Insane workload and intense pressure, but with mid-market pay. You are expected to handle a huge workload, constantly sprinting toward arbitrary deadlines for projects that are routinely abandoned weeks later. While the rest of us gets a 10% bonus, the leadership team gets 40% instead. Don't rely on the stock options either; it's effectively monopoly money with no IPO in sight. Even the "free" lunch is a trap, it's a taxable benefit that actually rinses your pay check, designed solely to tether you to the building so you work through your breaks. The CEO once say "If you don't like it here, leave" at an all hands meeting. They track your attendance too. There's a lack of psychological safety all around. Bullying is common, and people are so toxic. Serious misconduct goes entirely unchecked. When highly credible allegations of sexual harassment involving CHRO are swept under the rug, it tells you everything you need to know about the company's moral compass. Add in the tax-dodging billionaire CEO, and you have a culture operating entirely without ethics. Meetings aren't for collaboration; they are public forums for senior staff to bully, talk over, and belittle colleagues. You aren’t led here, you are managed by people who view empathy as a weakness.

Vantaggi

Good salary, thats about it

Svantaggi

Toxic work culture, they want you to work from 6 am to 9pm. If you do not speak french or are not french you will feel like an outsider. Favoritism is big here, manager have their favorites and will feed them inbounds. Very hard to get approval to go to conferences, and there is no ROI, longer reps hold on to bigger name merchants for years even though they are not having any impact, and no one does anything about it.
