Pros

Having worked, since I left, with 3 other companies in the financial sector, none of them had this level of communication from so high Ranking managers. Honestly I really miss it. You work with smart people You learn a lot HR is actually helpful and there for you. Fun activities in the offices and great parties. The management really values OKR's and the anonymous feedback. A lot of documentation in place, processes, Policies etc. You know the value you bring and what is required of you because the CEO and the co founder actually communicate this and very often for that matter. I also used to have a very good manager in Compliance so that helped. I worked with other managers as well though and they were all very helpfull and knew what they were doing.

Cons

Salary for the UK but all companies now suffer so I don't know if that can be corrected at the moment

Pros

My time at SumUp as an Account Executive was a truly valuable chapter in my career. From day one, I was impressed by the company’s commitment to its employees — the culture is people-first in every sense. You’re not just a number here; your well-being, development, and growth genuinely matter. One of the key reasons I joined was my manager, AnneMarie. She’s an exceptional leader — intuitive, empathetic, and deeply in tune with her team. Her ability to understand and support people individually created a space where I felt constantly encouraged to grow, even through the natural ups and downs of a sales role. Her leadership was a game changer for me. The role itself isn't easy — as expected in a sales position, you’re responsible for generating your own leads, cold calling, and walking into businesses. What made it all worth it was knowing that leadership at SumUp sees and values hard work and authenticity. When you put in the effort and show up as your genuine self, it’s recognized — and that made a huge difference in my motivation and performance. You are rewarded as well for performance that is solely activity based which was a huge motivator for me in months where I struggled to hit quota or when I first started building my pipeline . Overall, if you're looking for a place where you can grow, be challenged, and be supported by a strong team and inspiring leadership, SumUp is a fantastic place to be. I’m grateful for everything I learned and the relationships I built during my time there.

Cons

Cold calling Driving car package is minimal Better support with merchant retention No protected zip codes
