No Onboarding, Just Expectations

Pros

Remote work can be an advantage if you maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Cons

I was overwhelmed within just two months. There was no proper onboarding, yet high expectations were set from day one. With no clear direction on deliverables, I was left to figure things out on my own. Working across time zones meant I was often up day and night, leading to an unhealthy work-life balance.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We take feedback seriously and recognize that your onboarding and initial experience did not meet the high standards we aim to set for our Camundi. While we design our work environment to support async collaboration and empower team members to work autonomously, we understand that this approach can be challenging, especially during the initial months. Our comprehensive new Camundi onboarding is intended to provide support, but we clearly missed the mark in helping you feel fully oriented and successful. We pride ourselves on being a global team that values work-life integration, and we absolutely do not advocate for long hours. Your feedback highlights an area where we need to improve our support for new team members adapting to our async work model. If you're open to providing more details, we'd welcome the opportunity to learn more about your specific challenge and encourage you to reach out to our CPO directly.

Pros

One of the notable positives in our company, as agreed upon by myself and many colleagues, is our admiration and respect for the CEO. He stands out as a genuinely ethical and driven leader, setting a commendable example at the top. However, there is a caveat to his approach; the trust he extends is sometimes misplaced in individuals who may not align with his values and vision. This issue will be elaborated further in the cons section.

Cons

In my current role within the finance department, I’ve unfortunately experienced instances of bullying and mistreatment, a sentiment echoed by several colleagues. This has contributed to a challenging work environment, further exacerbated by a high turnover rate, particularly among skilled individuals. The leadership style within the department often displays a concerning inconsistency, with leaders behaving differently in front of senior management and other departments. A significant issue is the approach to accountability and expectations set by our leaders. Mistakes made by leadership are often not acknowledged, and instead, these errors are attributed to team members. The team is also burdened with unrealistic expectations, which include rectifying oversights made by our superiors. Another area of concern is the lack of recognition and support for the team. Despite significant efforts and contributions, our work often goes unrecognized, with leadership frequently taking credit without offering the necessary support or acknowledgment. This situation is compounded by a disregard for employee well-being, work-life balance, and personal boundaries, making for a difficult and often disheartening workplace experience.
