Poor treatment of tutors, relatively poor pay with context - Tutor bei Atom Learning: Mitarbeiterbewertung

There are loads of wonderful people who are great at what they do and happy to collaborate and support each other. There are also some good benefits, such as flexible working and opportunities to work abroad.

I wasn't planning to add a review, but since there are clearly fake reviews spinning everything, here is my experience. • As others have mentioned, salary levels are middling. Whilst there are open offers to discuss salary in theory, they are always shut down in practice. • For commercial teams, targets are generally arbitrary and unrealistic. Should these be missed, leadership swiftly and quietly fires people, or suddenly moves them into roles that are either a demotion or to completely different teams where you are unlikely to be successful. • To that end, there are regular team reorganisations to try to make things better, without actually understanding and addressing the real issues. • There is also no real room for career progression. There are vague discussions, but in practice it mostly looks like taking on additional work but being told to wait for a salary increase. More work for less pay is the way.

Great people, interesting tech stack, good compensation, amazing product

Cringeworthy massive push for us to all use AI. Nearly half the engineering team laid off for not embracing AI in the way that management want. Been told that despite years of experience as a JS developer that I am now a "full stack" engineer and I'm expected to do both FE, backend AND data engineering. Encouraged to spend my days prompting claude agents rather than writing code. I know that the industry is moving to AI, and I do understand the benefits, but this is outrageous.
