We believe we’re a nice tech too! Thank you for this review. We believe trust is pivotal for work relationships, so we value your feedback and will dive into this further. We realize going through two layoffs has been tough for Castor, and although we have not been alone in going through this, we decided to do so relatively early for us to come out stronger again. We implemented a salary framework relatively early for our company size, to not only hire against the external market but also ensure fair pay!

Chaotic company

Pros

Growing company, some cool people working there.

Cons

There was zero communication between the recruiters and the team I've joined. Bad communication also inside the team. Some really unpleasant people working there, hindering instead of helping. From outside looks like a cool, innovative and young company, but from inside it's like a classical company, with old methodologies and old mindset.

Thanks for your note. Although we prefer a more positive outlook, we believe we need to learn from this feedback too. We don't approve of unpleasant peers let alone others hindering your contribution. We are sorry you had this experience. We would value more in-depth feedback to understand where we could improve - if you are ok with reaching out to the People team, please drop a mail to people@castoredc.com to set up a call together. Of course, we will respect your anonymity whether you reach out or not.
