    Negative Outlook
    Disapproves of CEO

    I have been working at Dafiti full-time for more than 3 years

    Pros

    Extremely challenging and dynamic Vertiginous rate of change, all the time Fun people all around Start-up culture "Do it now, think it later"

    Cons

    Values are a joke, no one follows them No sense of higher purpose, only money and results Opaque processes and structure No career planning or progression Lack of transparency Ad-hoc evaluation and feedbacks VPs want profitability now, people development (much) later HR is ineffective and de-prioritized Short-termism at its worst

    Advice to Management

    You have to align incentives. If you want short-term profitability above all else, start sharing some equity so employees have a reason to care. Otherwise the divergence will continue: people want a robust, engaging company in which they can thrive and grow, while you seemingly just want to put some "lipstick on a pig" so you can cash out

    I have been working at Dafiti

    Pros

    Change is a constant in the company. It is a place where you will be challenged every day to deliver more, fast and with high quality.

    Cons

    The company changes faster than people that work there. We have to syncronize it.

  8. "Good but not efficient"

    StarStarStarStarStar
     

    I worked at Dafiti

    Pros

    The atmosphere is nice, the coworkers were also relaxed and open. Some of them have a high work attitude and are really committed to their jobs

    Cons

    HR was somewhat unfriendly, the whole process seems inefficient and the accounting is often done manually due to lacking excel skills. Moreover, there was also some talking behind backs

    Advice to Management

    Don't hire based on relationships

    I worked at Dafiti full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    Very strong Teamwork and organization A friendly and challenging place Constant learning Good culture

    Cons

    Not much opportunity to grow in carreer (although not null) Salary and benefits could be better (it was the reason for leaving, I received a better proposal) It's Rocket Internet, so you are not creating anything, just copying working business models

    Advice to Management

    To create a innovation or R&D team

    Negative Outlook

    I worked at Dafiti full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    A few good and competent workers, underestimated by goofy CEOs and managers. Even being a hell of a place to work you can find some good people to hang out and exchange some good professional experiences.

    Cons

    Like most of Rocket's companies, everything there is pure evil! If you're really a competent professional, you won't stay at Dafiti more than 2 or 3 months. The CEOs are pathetic and they don't know what they're doing at all. They'd rather burn money with useless furniture, decor stuff, incompetent foreign managers (mainly the portuguese ones) than to value the good hard-working people. Working at Dafiti is like... being in a lost ship, with a bunch of morons in command, leading you to nowhere but to oppression and lack of recognition of your work. The only way up is being intimate friends with CEOs or superior managers, but you'll have to have a really strong stomach for that. Health insurance and dental are jokes, as well as salaries way too low the average. I would not recommend this place to work, even for my worst enemy.
