Sinch reviews

Communication overhead with global teams, slow decision making process

It was a complete mismatch of values between me and Sinch. I value experimentation, continuous learning, friendly and helpful colleagues, and being seen as a human being, among other things. My experience at Sinch is as follows: - Status quo triumphed over new ideas - Learning opportunity was limited to only my job description (as per the employee handbook at that time, external training was heavily down-prioritized) - My colleagues were mainly interested in having a transactional relationship instead of a social relationship - I was only my role, and nothing more During the worst period of COVID-19, many of my colleagues (or their families) in a particular country were sick and were unable to work. I tried to protect them and let them recover before returning to work. Still, another colleague insisted they should continue working on one specific thing. For me, that was the nail in the coffin. It was very dehumanizing and I knew I had to leave.
