Generally Great - Marketing Intern bei NetMind.AI: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Definitely no pros, just an option if you’re seeking a job or can’t find a better one at the moment

1. Toxic Culture: The company advertises itself as an international organization, but the reality is far from it. The workplace is dominated by Chinese employees, with most meetings and communication done in Mandarin and Chinese media. There is no diversity, despite their outward claims of being global. 2. Minimal Pay: The pay for us is nothing more than minimum wage, which feels like a scam. They lure recent graduates with promises of visa sponsorship after the internship period, but in reality, they either extend another contract without any visa update or, worse, cut you off and hire another intern to exploit cheap labor. 3. Lack of Mentorship and Management: There is no proper mentorship, no structured management, and absolutely no coherent marketing or managerial strategies. Product development is haphazard, with decisions made arbitrarily by leadership, and you’re not allowed to challenge the bosses even when their demands are absurd. The focus isn’t on generating profit or building meaningful products—they rely heavily on ChatGPT and OpenAI APIs, pretending to be an AI research company. Their so-called “research” are ridiculous, fake, and lack technical strategies. No one teaches you anything, and instead, you’re constantly told to “just ask ChatGPT” for guidance. Shockingly, even critical decisions are made by asking ChatGPT. 4. Work-Life Balance: There’s virtually no work-life balance. The HR closely monitors when you arrive at the office, but the boss is rarely present, and it’s unclear what they’re actually doing. They don’t manage the teams or care about the product, yet somehow act as though they’re extremely busy. Despite all this, they’ve also eliminated the option to work remotely for most employees.

None to think of right now unfortunately

This start-up has gone really downhill recently. The founders are big egos who think they can build top notch AI products with a tiny team and using ChatGPT for coding and everything. No investment in the staff, low pay and 5 days a week in the office. CEO is almost never at work and has no clear vision. Comes in the office at 3pm tired, goes for a nap in his room and comes back at 5pm asking for meetings, but if you're not in the office at 9.30 am HR will report you. The startup is also engaging in crypto currency trading which is highly suspicious, as the founders may have sold their own coins in the market. Their business model just does not make sense, unless they make money from cryptos. The company has not made a single penny of profit in 3 years. The two founders are Chinese and 90% of the company employees in London are also Chinese and management expect Chinese style level of obedience and subordination. Most meetings are in Mandarine. The majority of the London office has recently been fired over the last 6 months. The first people to be let go were the highest paid people (the only two token white guys in the office), then they started firing also the junior Chinese people. They take advantage of people from China like me who rely on them for their visa and treat them poorly. Everyone I know of is looking for a job and just waiting to be fired next. Avoid at all costs
