Great company culture - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso GoPago

Learned a tremendous amount! Had the opportunity to grow from 1 group to the next and now have moved to a new city and couldn't stay with the team. Management provided guidance and the opportunities to grow. If you work hard you have the opportunity to grow and succeed. The CMO is hard on you, but he challenges you. It's a get your sh*t done type of environment, driven from the CEO. They no longer are exclusive to Chase, which is a good thing. That was weighing the company down. CSO seems to be doing a good job signing up resellers. The management team promotes and compensates performers. Typically, non-performers either are asked to leave or don't get increased comp. I've seen that a few times and you know you can see it coming.

A few folks that are junior need hand holding, this brings down the group. I'm not sure why they are there. CTO is a bit too passionate sometimes...probably scares the junior guys!

I've met some of the best people to work with and learn from at GoPago - many peers, engineers, and product managers are always very welcoming and friendly. There are quite a few brilliant people that work here and make it worthwhile, but it is not enough to outweigh the poor upper management.

While it is understood that many CEOs are sociopaths, this one takes the cake for being one of the worst. If you look at the review below, titled "Great place for growth", it is evident that the CEO himself wrote the fake review in hopes of boosting the rating of this company on Glassdoor. Be prepared for micromanagement, irrational behavior, and rash decisions coupled with an inappropriate sense of "superiority". If you are not an engineer, you are easily disposable and undervalued as an employee. This company carried the hectic environment of a start-up, however, the structure of management made it clear that it is not a typical start-up where there is transparency and culture.
