Pluspunten

The company has a talented and thoughtful group of people across design, development, and product teams, and offers opportunities to work on meaningful and challenging projects. It can be a good place to gain experience early in your career if you navigate the internal politics carefully.

Minpunten

Career progression depends more on personal alignment with the CEO than on the quality of work or contributions. Although leadership publicly encourages open dialogue, disagreement is discouraged in practice and critical thinking is often quietly dismissed. The CEO maintains strong opinions across all departments and expects alignment rather than open debate. Employees who fall out of favor with the CEO or his close circle are often quietly laid off, even with strong performance, without an opportunity to say goodbye to their teams. Those individuals are typically required to sign severance agreements that prevent them from speaking openly about their experiences. As a result, a culture of fear and silence persists internally, while externally the company maintains a public image that no longer reflects its internal reality.

Hello, thanks for taking the time to put together a review of your Internship with Safe Software. We apologize for not being able to help connect you with subject matter experts on our team to meet and mentor you. This is something that we’re hoping to build into our Internship Program as we mature, grow and scale as an organization. Mentorship and work-life balance at work are really important to us, so if there are areas that students are keen to explore, just let your Team Lead or HR know! We’ll try our very best to make things happen.

Pluspunten

By far the best company I have ever worked at. Managers genuinely care about you as a person, your mental health, your work load, whether you are stressed or happy. I feel very supported. The work is really interesting, working on a real cool piece of software with a loyal customer base. The work life balance is incredible, a lot of people work remote but there is also the option to go into what is an incredible office with unlimited free drinks and very cheap food/snacks. I have never been pressured to work longer hours or anything like that. There is also full trust in you to get your work done within your own life and time commitments, notably “Flex time” is a huge perk. You can choose your hours in a lot of roles and teams.

Minpunten

Not necessarily a con, but worth knowing that the company is growing fast so things may change. Pay is about market average.
