Pros

Celonis is a fast growing decacorn with technology and a platform that remains relevant through any business cycle. You will work with dynamic teams on challenging customer problems and derive satisfaction from your work. Pay for new employees is great and much higher than employees with more time at the company. Perks are superb including Gympass and unmatched parental leave

Cons

Dynamic leaders that built teams, processes, and positive cultures have been demoted or have left outright to be replaced by leaders from outside firms to check boxes for an IPO. Many of these leaders attempt to apply the culture (generally focused on lots of work) and the processes they know without much consideration to what is working well already or in many cases even how the technology works. This scenario has happened across the company in various functions and levels. Specifically in the CVA group, new leaders are aloof to their people and completely focused on managing up. There is no sense of how to build positive culture, remove barriers for employees, or enable growth opportunities

Pros

Great place to grow your career. I've seen a lot of growth for myself and have had wonderful leaders at the company. The company has an incredible product.

Cons

Unfortunately, HR does not care about employees after they've left Celonis. It's a sad truth. If you were lucky to get shares (which no one gets anything of worth), you will spend 6+ months battling with HR on buying your options and viewing what you've bought. It was an extremely frustrating ordeal. Emails will be ignored. No one will call you back. They give no one any substantial piece of the pie so please (PLEASE!)...when you get promoted/hired, ask for options. They will be worth way more than the small bump in pay you may receive.

Pros

Engineers in Europe are humble and great to work with

Cons

Politics through the roof. CEO has serious trust and control issues — Eng called at home 5 levels below. Why couldn’t their mgmt do that ? Why bypass all the levels which are there for a reason? Executive trust at an all time low … 50%… that’s an internal metric so if anything it’s inflated. Massive tech debt and horrible leadership decisions. Good luck!
