Good potential, bad execution - werkgeversreview Senior Software Engineer bij Rithum

CS org combined with Renewals some time ago. Since then, the Customer Success leadership has put the team in a great position to succeed. Providing solid tools and direction, using metric-based approaches and not aimless goals (like having to hit a generic 'calls made' goal)

Upward movement career-wise can be a challenge

-Smart, supportive colleagues and I had great management on my side of the services business -Fully remote with solid benefits and PTO (doesn't roll over year-to-year anymore but you do get a lot of it) -Platform that covers almost every facet of ecommerce and exposes you to tons of different functions and use cases of it daily -Opportunities to work with leading brands and marketplace partners -Rithum for Brands (formerly ChannelAdvisor) name still carries a lot of weight in the space

-Pay here has never been competitive and is disproportionate to the levels of stress and responsibility -Leadership leaning way too much on outsourcing for client facing tasks -Success here started to feel more defined by activity metrics instead of client growth and sentiment -Lots of the typical 2026 messaging around AI that often doesn't feel particularly relevant to clients' issues or what your needs are in the role
