Pluspunten

Within months you learn how NOT to run an organisation

Minpunten

What a ride it has been... it was a journey that started with big words. All seemed to be so promising. An amazing culture, one big family, great benefits. Until we found it wasn't anymore. In a few months time, more than 75% of the Benelux team decided to quit their job. Not because we can't deal with a bit of stress, not because we can't handle a bit of criticism or long working days. It was all caused by the culture and decisions made by management. To give some examples: - The bonus system was unjustly changed retroactively, leading to towering debts among the employees. Challenging it with a lawyer wasn't an option, as Insider 'wasn't interested in talking to lawyers'. - The team was managed through fear creation. If you didn't do xyz, our manager told us couldn't defend you within the organization anymore (and basically, you'd lose your job). - Promotions were made impossible through gigantic development plans of +100 hours that you had to complete in your own time. A promotion wasn't given simply because you did very good work and met your targets. - Receiving your bonus was a battle every quarter. You could work for a whole quarter to meet your bonus, only to spend hours afterward arguing with management because the system said you hadn't met your targets. - Benefits were plentiful for the Turkish headquarters, but the regional offices got nothing. Turkish employees got plenty of free lunch, drinks, champagne, you name it. In the Benelux, we still had to pay for our own tea. Ultimately, I saw colleagues break down, and I saw myself change from a positive person to someone who became depressed and came home with physical stress symptoms in the evenings.

Pluspunten

You will learn a lot, and to this day, Insider still maintains a relatively good reputation in the industry. Because of that, it might give your career a boost, but unfortunately, these benefits come at a high cost.

Minpunten

This has undeniably been one of the most traumatic experiences of my professional life. Insider will overload you with so much work that you barely have time to eat, sleep, or breathe. Additionally, their management style is driven by fear. They are aware that they are selling software that is buggy and not ready, charging unreasonably high prices, and deliberately activating auto-renewal without any warning. To succeed in this job, you must sacrifice your morals and values and care little for your customers. Apart from the shady practices they engage in externally, they also mistreat their employees. To be promoted or stay safe at a top level position, you must be Turkish (all regional leaders have been fired). As an employee, you may face yelling and degradation. I've witnessed colleagues break down in tears regularly after meetings with management. Do not expect to be compensated for this mistreatment. While they may promise fantastic bonuses (which, considering the extra hours you have to work to meet targets, aren't even that impressive), don't count on actually receiving them. Insider will find ways to not pay you your well-deserved bonus. I can only warn you, but please think twice before joining this organization.

Large corporations work with the technology

Minpunten

My time at Insider was far from positive, mainly due to the poor management style and problematic company culture. First and foremost, the management style was detrimental to a healthy work environment. Denigrating behaviour and excessive micromanagement were commonplace, fostering an atmosphere of constant stress and fear among employees, ultimately impacting productivity and morale negatively. Additionally, the bonus structure was unreliable, with bonuses often being adjusted without clear justification and sometimes not being paid out at all or incorrectly. This lack of transparency and consistency led to mistrust and demotivation within the team. The reimbursement process for expenses was also a source of frustration, taking months for reimbursements to be processed and paid out, leaving employees often out of pocket for expenses that should have been covered by the company. Perhaps most disheartening was the gap between promises and actions. Management was adept at making grand promises, but few concrete actions were taken to fulfill these promises, creating a sense of disillusionment and cynicism among employees. Overall, my time at Insider was a disappointing and discouraging experience. I hope this message can assist others in making an informed decision about their career at this company.
