      Optimization Manager Interview

      Nov 5, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Adyen (San Francisco, CA) in Oct 2025

      Interview

      Interview process was fast and straight forward. Recruiter, hiring manager, case study (1 week to complete the take home and prepare a presentation), panel leadership interview, final round with SVP/member of the board. I work in payments, so I didn't find it overly challenging. I declined the offer because the compensation was incredibly low, and the recruiter did not like that. She got very nasty on the phone when I politely declined the offer, saying I wasn't qualified anyway. It left me with a very bad impression of Adyen and the culture. If you accept an offer for this role, congrats, but you are being very underpaid.
