Pros

Good atmosphere (although not in every team). Incredible and inspiring people who are experts in their fields. Benefits like training budget. Salaries are quite ok. Remote work (but only hybrid options are available for our new employees).

Cons

The company used to be known for its excellent translation products, but now it's losing its focus and is spreading itself too thin. There has been inconsistent communication: the company announced that it was in good condition, and then suddenly fired 40 people (before I also heard about people from other teams leaving or being fired). I'm not sure if DeepL will survive the next 3 years.

Working for a European company takes some adjustment with time zone difference and working styles but it is easy to navigate.

Pros

Based on reviews, the company is up and coming and seems to have potential. People are really down to earth and seem to have fun...some times too much fun!

Cons

Lots of layers of leadership Can't trust HR - don't listen to all sides So many people from Twillio, the company should be called DeepL-Twillio
