Pros

Great software and smart people? That is the only "Pro" I can think of and I've been thinking about writing this review for 6+ months.

Cons

At one point in time, this was a place where you were told you could be a part of something special: Building the next enterprise software giant. Every day that goes by that dream slips further and further away for most. It is only a reality for the founding team and senior leadership while the rest of the 500+ employees are treated as expendable resources regardless of tenure. - An incredibly toxic work environment in NYC office - For a company that is pioneering process transparency, there is NO transparency internally - C-level management taking deals from AE's and not giving any type of comp or quota attainment - Sexual/workplace harassment resulting in a couple of firings. I wish I could say that the firings happened immediately but that was not the case. - No equity of any kind but you're expected to give your blood, sweat, and tears for the company to be successful - Significantly below market pay, benefits, insurance etc. - No culture - Nickel and dime employees on work travel expenses - No one knows (including sales leadership) how to sell the product effectively - Quotas are about 3-4x too high and therefore crushing your number is out of the question - Next to no training or enablement I could go on but I don't think there is a need.

Pros

Celonis offers a strong mix of cutting-edge technology and real business impact. The company is at the forefront of process mining and execution management, which creates meaningful value for customers across industries. You get exposure to complex, high-visibility projects, and the people are generally smart, driven, and collaborative. There’s also solid opportunity for career growth, especially if you’re proactive and comfortable operating in a fast-paced environment.

Cons

The pace can be intense, and expectations are high, which can lead to long hours at times. As the company continues to scale, there can be some internal complexity, shifting priorities, and occasional lack of clarity in roles or processes. Success often requires navigating ambiguity and being highly self-directed, which may not be the best fit for everyone.
