Unlike any other company - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Numbrs

Having worked for Centralway for just over two years and reading a few negative reviews here, I felt compelled to write something honest that hopefully gives potential future employees insight into what it's really like to work at Centralway but also something to give context to the negative reviews posted. First and foremost, the Centralway of November 2016 is nothing like the Centralway of 2015 - the reviews from that period may as well be for a completely different company because much has changed since then. Management saw the issues existing in the company during that time (at all levels) and made big changes, all of which have turned out for the better. Second, getting hired at Centralway is not easy, and neither is making it past the probation period. Even after you are hired, the probation period really is a probation period. So, don't expect that because you got hired that you are guaranteed to be there three months later. If you are a highly capable and adaptable person who gets things done and gets along with different types of people from different cultures, you will have no problem. Personally I see it as a big positive that the company doesn't hold onto people who don't fit as I've seen many problems in other companies where the wrong people are tolerated and shifted around. You won't experience this at Centralway. Most importantly, the people you will work with are simply amazing, there's no other way to put it. Everyone there is not only highly competent, but also down-to-earth and friendly. There is a surprisingly small amount of politics and lack of silos, and despite the growth of the company over the past 12 months, the culture has persisted. The side-benefits are also incredible (catered breakfast and lunch, free snacks/drinks/ice-cream, team events, company events, kicker table tournaments and more). You will not find many companies outside Silicon Valley with comparable conditions. As for the work itself, this obviously varies from department to department. I work on the more technical side, so can only say that the technology stack is first-class and compromises are not made on quality - look at the product and this should speak for itself. Everyone who works on the product takes pride in the details and management are not afraid to push deadlines in order to ensure a quality product is shipped. This can of course be frustrating and exhausting at times, because you want to see your weeks (sometimes months) of hard work in the hands of users, but management (especially the CEO) does not tolerate shipping anything of sub-par quality just to hit a deadline. if you don't believe in this philosophy, then Centralway is not the right place for you. Ultimately, if you want to work with great people, modern technology, have great benefits and do something that will long-term re-shape the financial industry, send in your CV and if you make it to that point, judge for yourself during the Meet Centralway.
